After an episode of incontinence, belted undergarments can provide one of the most convenient means to reduce the need to completely change clothing or beds. Belted undergarments, sometimes called belted shields, are essentially large rectangles of absorbent material fitted with two elastic bands on the tops along each side of the waist. The elastic belts are usually secured by buttons for application of new pads or removal of soiled pads. They look like adult diapers when worn, but are not as bulky as full incontinence undergarments and are more comfortable to wear.
Belted undergarments have proven to be the reliable choice for many who have experienced incontinence for years. These are not sized or truly shaped, and one size is said to fit all. While belted shields provide body coverage and protection for the average size person, they may not adequately protect against bowel incontinence or for a larger person.
