A secondary internal topsheet and leg wrap structure is provided in a disposable absorbent garment such as a diaper or training pants. The leg wrap structure has a base layer, a top layer, and an elastic construction disposed inbetween. The elastic construction includes a plurality of spaced apart elastic elements that are aligned in a generally in generally parallel relation. The leg wrap structure and secondary topsheet provides for the efficient formation of a reservoir and a plurality of fluid dams each capable of capturing a quantity of fluid to minimize the occurrence of fluid leaks from the absorbent article. Methods of forming such absorbent articles are disclosed.

The sanitary pad of the present invention includes: (i) a lower cover layer 10 including a straight type body 11 and wing parts 12; (ii) an absorbent pad layer 20 whose both sides are separated from the lower cover layer 10 and only central portion is adhered to the lower cover layer 10, wherein a distal end portion thereof is divided into two hemispherical protrusions 21 and 22; (iii) an upper cover layer 30 laminated on the absorbent pad layer 20; and (iv) side cover layers 40 whose both ends extend from upper edges on both sides of the upper cover layer 30 to both upper end portions of the cover layer 10 in the lateral direction thereof, and middle portions are inserted into a gap formed between the lower cover layer 10 and the separated both side portions of the absorbent pad layer 20.

The subject of the invention is a wound care article for extraction and control of wound fluids, comprising at least one first fluid-absorbing structure (1; 10; 36), which is surrounded by a liquid-permeable, first enclosure (2), and a liquid-permeable, second enclosure (3) comprising two enclosing surfaces (13.1, 13.2). The wound care article is thus characterized in that the first enclosure (2) is covered or supported on at least one of its flat sides (4.1, 4.2) by at least one fluid-absorbing material layer (6.1, 6.2; 6.3), which is arranged (FIG. 1a) between the first enclosure (2) and one of the enclosing surfaces (13.1, 13.2) of the second enclosure (3).

A personal hygiene device comprising an outer shell configured to be disposed on a patient. An inner absorbent material disposed interior to the outer shell and forming a single unit with the outer shell. A tube having a first end and a second end disposed interior to the inner absorbent material, wherein the first end of the tube is configured to remove a liquid from the absorbent material when suction is applied to the second end.
