Anyone suffering from incontinence problems knows that it is hard to lead a normal, day-to-day without feeling anxious. Individuals with incontinence issues have fears about leaking onto furniture or having their portable urinals leak while traveling. Fortunately, products have been designed to help combat fears and allow these incontinent individuals to feel confident, regardless of where they are.
The Ursec Spill Proof Urinal is designed with an innovative anti-reflux system that is spill-proof and features stain-resistant plastic. This large, clear urinal is available in either male or female versions and includes raised graduations of volume measurements to help keep track of urination (if needed). For a larger capacity of volume, the Male SPIL-PRUF Urinal is especially ideal as it is made out of a dark plastic, making virtually impossible to see its contents. Both of these urinals help instill confidence by reducing odor problems and allowing users to feel more comfortable with traveling.
For those looking for more protection while at home, the Sheet Protector Ultra Plus Washable Underpad can be used on beds or furniture such as couches or chairs. This under pad is highly absorbent as it is designed with a quilted fabric that draws moisture away from the surface and is lined with a waterproof backing. Machine washable, the Sheet Protector keeps sheets dry all night and protects the skin from moisture.
Another option is the Priva Soft Quilt Reusable Chair Pad. Sized to to fit furniture and wheelchair seats, there are four layers of protection in this pad so it is both comfortable and effective at protecting both the user and furniture from any wetness. This chair pad can be washed and reused.
If you would prefer to not wash and reuse the underpads, there are disposable options. The variety of disposable under pads ensures security for every budget. On the bargain end of the spectrum are the Harmonie Underpad and ISG Invacare Disposable Underpads. These incontinence products shield bed linens and furniture, and can also help with repositioning patients.
Moving up are products like the PaperPak Attends Dri-Sorb Plus Underpad with softer facing for healthier skin, fluff filler for additional comfort, and adhesive strips to keep the pad from moving under the user. For the ultimate capacity, go with the Tranquility Peach Sheet Underpad which has the ability to contain over one quart of fluid! Nearly five square feet of dry guard is held in place with adhesive strips. The ability to contain so much liquid makes the Tranquility Under Pad ideal for people at risk of skin breakdown.
Prices increase in correlation to the product features and quality, so it really depends what the user’s needs are that will help define the best incontinence under pad for them.
As with underpads, incontinence underwear are available in both reusable and disposable options. Ideal for women new to using incontinence briefs are the reusable Inspire Protective Panty Starter Pack by K2 Health, featuring soft cotton and a feminine design. Men who don’t want their underwear to announce their urinary health issues appreciate the Dignity Men’s Boxer Shorts which look exactly like “regular” boxer shorts, but discretely secure pads/liners and includes a floating moisture proof pouch.
If disposable briefs are preferred as more convenient, the Attends Breathable Briefs by PaperPak not only prevent leakage they also promote healthier skin via specially designed side panels that provide better air circulation so skin is kept drier (and less irritated).
Each of these discreet incontinence products are specifically designed to provide you with a reliable way to stay confident (and dry!) while at home or traveling, so that you don’t miss out on what life has in store for you! For more information on adult urinary incontinence products, click here.
