Cardinal Wings™ Plus Disposable Underpads - 23" x 36" - Heavy Absorbency
Cardinal Health Wings™ Plus Disposable Underpads (23" x 36")
High-Density Fluff and Super-Absorbent Polymer Core, Slip-Resistant Beige Polypropylene Backsheet, Spunbond Non-Woven Topsheet, and Advanced Core Odor Control Matrix
Safe, independent access to clean personal care is one of the most fundamental daily needs—and one of the first to become difficult after surgery, with advancing age, or during severe illness. The Cardinal Health Wings™ Plus Disposable Underpad delivers an exceptional level of clinical fluid retention, furniture protection, and skin health defense for individuals experiencing heavy bladder and bowel weakness. Standard disposable underpads frequently suffer from structural shifting, bunching, and liquid bleed-through under direct body pressure, exposing bedding and furniture surfaces to staining and moisture. The Wings™ Plus heavy-duty series systematically resolves these common care challenges, combining a generous 23 x 36-inch surface footprint with a specialized composite core built to trap fluid surges immediately.
At the center of its protective matrix is an advanced core formulation combining high-density cellulose fluff with super-absorbent polymers (SAP). This reactive blend quickly wicks fluid downward, encapsulating liquid voids into a dry internal gel layer to keep the skin safe from moisture exposure and maceration under body pressure. The structural base is engineered with a rugged, slip-resistant beige polypropylene backsheet that forms a 100% waterproof barrier, completely blocking fluid strike-through to keep wheelchairs, recliners, and bed linens pristine. Finished with a gentle, cloth-like white spunbond non-woven topsheet that reduces skin friction and featuring a low-profile colorway for enhanced discretion, this premium underpad ensures clean surface utility and absolute reassurance.
Key Performance Features & Benefits
- Polymer-Infused Heavy Core: High-density fluff blended with extra super-absorbent polymers (SAP) rapidly encapsulates heavy liquid surges, locking them into a secure internal dry layer.
- Leak-Proof Polypropylene Backsheet: Robust, waterproof polypropylene backing creates an unyielding physical moisture shield, defending underlying upholstery, chairs, and fabrics.
- Discreet Beige Colorway: Low-profile beige backing film offers a subtle aesthetic that blends naturally into domestic and professional care spaces far better than standard clinical blue pads.
- Advanced Moisture-Wicking Topsheet: White spunbond non-woven topsheet channels fluids away from the contact plane instantly to preserve optimal sacral skin health.
- High-Friction Slip Resistance: Technical polypropylene backsheet texture settles into sheets naturally, preventing shifting, sliding, or bunching under active sleepers.
- Active Odor Control Matrix: Super-absorbent core particles chemically trap volatile moisture molecules, neutralizing stubborn ammonia smells to maintain room freshness.
- Optimized 23" x 36" Rectangular Fit: Generous dimensions are perfectly shaped for cross-mattress positioning, wheelchairs, recliners, and standard residential furniture surfaces.
Incontinence Specialist Insight: The Cardinal Health Wings™ Plus #7193 underpad is highly effective because it integrates heavy chemical polymer gelling agents directly into a high-density fluff core. Standard fluff-only pads act like a wet sponge under continuous body pressure, forcing trapped moisture back upward onto the patient's skin. The SAP particles in the Wings™ Plus matrix lock fluid away at the molecular level, ensuring top layer dryness. Always position the soft white spunbond topsheet face upward toward the user, allowing the low-profile beige polypropylene backing to rest flat against the underlying bedding fabric.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the primary benefit of a polymer-infused core engine over standard paper fluff pads?
A: Standard economy-grade pads use only basic paper fluff, which breaks apart, clumps, and lets moisture travel backward under body pressure. Cardinal Health infuses its core with advanced super-absorbent polymers. These particles lock fluid into an uncompromised gel state, keeping the top layer dry and preventing leaks under real-world body force.
Q: Can these heavy-absorbency single-use underpads be used to lift, pull, or slide a patient in bed?
A: No. These pads feature a robust polypropylene backing designed to block leaks and remain stable on fabrics, but they do not possess the reinforced high-tensile fabric backing required to support dynamic patient transfer weight. Attempting to lift or turn someone using this pad will cause it to tear apart. For bariatric turning needs, please check our heavy-duty repositioning selections.
Q: Why is the beige colorway of the backsheet layer highlighted as a key benefit?
A: Standard medical underpads use bright blue or white plastic backings that draw immediate attention to incontinence setups. The specialized beige backing of the Wings™ Plus series blends naturally into standard bedroom linens, hospital layouts, and household upholstery, providing a subtle, dignified care environment.
Retail Disclaimer: Absorbency performance thresholds, clinical classifications, and physical dimensions are verified directly by the manufacturer (Cardinal Health). EnhDme makes every effort to guarantee content precision; however, independent spatial evaluation is suggested prior to deployment if custom patient clinical conditions or specific surface tolerances must be managed. This is a single-use disposable hygiene item.
