FAQs
How do I determine the correct size for Abena Slip Flexi-Fit briefs?
Measure the user's waist and hip circumference and choose the size that corresponds to the larger measurement, according to the product's sizing chart. A snug fit is essential for optimal performance.
Are these briefs suitable for very heavy incontinence?
These briefs are designed for moderate to heavy incontinence. For very heavy or persistent incontinence, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional to ensure this product meets your specific needs or to explore higher absorbency options if available.
Can the wetness indicator be relied upon to know when to change?
Yes, the wetness indicator provides a visual cue when the product has absorbed liquid and may need changing. However, it's also good practice to check regularly, especially if skin integrity is a concern.
How effective is the odor control?
The integrated odor control system is designed to neutralize ammonia odors associated with urine. Its effectiveness is maximized when the brief is changed promptly after voiding.
Are these briefs discreet under clothing?
The briefs are designed to be relatively discreet. The breathable material and secure fit help minimize bulk and noise, but the level of discretion can depend on the clothing worn over them.
What does 'dermatologically tested' mean for these briefs?
It means the product has undergone testing by dermatologists to ensure it is safe and gentle on the skin, helping to maintain skin integrity and minimize the risk of allergic reactions or irritation.
Troubleshooting
Leakage occurs despite proper application.
Ensure the correct size is being used. Check that the leg elastics and side barriers are lying flat and creating a seal around the legs. Verify that the tapes are secured firmly but comfortably.
Skin irritation or redness.
While dermatologically tested, ensure the skin is clean and completely dry before applying the brief. Change the brief promptly when wet or soiled. Consider if any other factors are contributing to irritation.
Odors are still noticeable.
Ensure the brief is changed regularly, especially after voids. The odor control system is most effective when moisture is absorbed and contained. Ensure the product is the correct absorbency level for the user's needs.
Tapes do not adhere well.
Ensure the areas where the tapes attach are clean and dry, free from lotions or powders. Press the tapes firmly onto the designated landing area.
