    摘要: The present disclosure provides a hygienic article comprising a multi-layered absorbent pad having a built-in drainage mechanism in the form of a plastic tube that is affixed between two layers of the pad. The portion of the tubing that rests in the pad has a plurality of inlets for capturing excess fluid that accumulates between the layers, funnelling it into the tubing. The other end of the tubing extends out and ends in a connector element that allows it to form a watertight seal with a suction apparatus such as an aspirator. Once the pad is soiled the pad may simply be exchanged for another one which is affixed to the end of the tubing with the fluid inlets.
