Abstract: A sensor for monitoring wetness in a diaper or other absorbent article includes a housing that attaches to the absorbent article. The sensor may include inner and outer housing portions that capture an edge of the absorbent article between the housings. The sensor may include contacts that electrically connect with a pair of contact strips embedded in the absorbent article. The distance between the embedded strips may vary depending on the size of the absorbent article. The sensor may include multiple pairs of contacts that are spaced apart to match the distance between the contact strips for the variously sized absorbent articles. In this way, depending on the pair of contacts connected to the contact strips, the sensor may indicate the size of the absorbent article. The sensor may have a housing with a cavity and a lid that closes the cavity. The lid may be secured with a latch.

Abstract: The absorbent pad has a first layer, a second layer, and a third layer. Each layer of the pad has a liquid impervious back sheet. The backsheet or outer layer, which faces away from the wearer when the absorbent article is secured to the wearer, is composed of a moisture-impervious, flexible material. Further, each layer has a moisture pervious inner layer and an absorbent core positioned in between the inner layer and back sheet. The layers are coupled to each other via an adhesive. They can be removed by grasping a tab placed on each layer and pulling the layer away from the unsoiled layers.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent article includes a pouch integral to or affixed to an outer layer of the absorbent article. Once soiled with exudates, the pouch is inverted over the absorbent article to conceal and contain the article. The pouch and waist band include integral handles for transporting the exudate soiled article for disposal. The absorbent article may be part of a disposable absorbent article assembly including an individually packaged disposable absorbent article and packaging system, wherein prior to use the absorbent article is sealed within the packaging. The packaging seal is broken to remove the absorbent article and the packaging may be stored for later use or discarded.
