Diapers adapted for use in the collection of stool samples from infants are disclosed. Such diapers may include a backsheet comprising an effectively liquid impermeable material, a transverse perineal barrier comprising an effectively liquid impermeable material and sealingly connected to another component of the diaper, and a liquid control structure disposed over the backsheet and forward of the transverse perineal barrier. The diaper may include other features adapted to contain exudates, isolate urine from fecal material following discharge, avoid absorption of liquid components of fecal material and enhance likelihood of collecting a fecal sample that is sufficiently representative of its composition immediately following discharge.

A disposable nursing device with a urine and feces back-leakage prevention collection function includes a nursing pants body, a urine and feces collection bag and a catch tray. The nursing pants body is provided with a connecting port. The urine and feces collection bag is provided with an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer is a soft non-woven fabric, and the inner layer is a polymer absorption layer. A bottom portion of the urine and feces collection bag is closed, and a top portion of the urine and feces collection bag is provided with a bag opening. A urine and feces collection opening is arranged at a middle of the catch tray, and one side of the catch tray is connected with the bag opening of the urine and feces collection bag, and is connected with the connecting port on the nursing pants body.

Described herein is an incontinence treatment system and method of use. In certain embodiments the incontinence treatment system comprises a rear incontinence member capable of being releasably coupled to a front incontinence member. For example, in one certain embodiment the rear incontinence member includes a rear absorbent region, a rear outer layer coupled to the rear absorbent region, and a plurality of coupling members. The front incontinence member typically includes a front absorbent region and a front outer layer coupled to the front absorbent region, a support material being disposed around at least a portion of the front absorbent region, and one or more coupling regions being configured and arranged to engage at least a portion of the plurality of coupling members to couple the rear incontinence member to the front incontinence member.

An absorbent article includes a first waist region, a second waist region, and a crotch region disposed between the first and second waist regions; and a chassis comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core. The article also includes a waist feature joined to the chassis a waist region and having a portion extending longitudinally outboard of the chassis in said waist region. The backsheet has a barrier layer having a maximum length, L.sub.BS. The absorbent core has absorbent material and a maximum length, L.sub.CW, and wherein L.sub.CW is substantially the same as L.sub.BS. The absorbent material is disposed in an absorbent material deposition area. The absorbent material deposition area has a maximum length, L.sub.AB, wherein L.sub.AB is about 90% or greater of L.sub.BS. The first absorbent area lateral edge is disposed a longitudinal distance, D1, from the first barrier lateral edge, wherein D1 is 5% or less of L.sub.BS.

An absorbent article for personal hygiene having a front edge and a back edge and comprising a liquid impermeable backsheet, a liquid permeable topsheet, an absorbent core and a pair of barrier leg cuffs disposed symmetrically relative to the longitudinal axis. Each barrier leg cuff is defined by a proximal edge attached to the rest of the article and an elasticized terminal edge that can protrude upwards. The topsheet comprises a raisable region that is attached to the barrier leg cuffs so that when the barrier leg cuffs are raised, the raisable region is lifted up by the barrier leg cuffs and an empty volume is formed between the raisable region and the chassis of the article underneath.

A bottom portion of the urine and feces collection bag is closed, and a top portion of the urine and feces collection bag is provided with a bag opening. A urine and feces collection opening is arranged at a middle of the catch tray, and one side of the catch tray is connected with the bag opening of the urine and feces collection bag, and is connected with the connecting port on the nursing pants body.

Absorbent articles of the present disclosure may be constructed with a secondary liner sheet placed on top of a body facing liner of the articles configured to form a pocket. The pocket provides a barrier, thereby separating a front region of the absorbent articles from a rear region. In this manner, the absorbent articles of the present disclosure may reduce the spread of bodily exudates throughout the articles. The reduced spreading of exudates may help to keep skin healthy by reducing the amount of skin exposed to the skin irritants within the exudates and/or by preventing additional skin irritants from being created by preventing the mixing of BM and urine, at least in proximity to the skin of the wearer.
