McKesson Procedure Underpads 17 x 24 Heavy 3-Ply
McKesson Procedure Underpads, 17" x 24", Heavy 3-Ply Tissue
Compact, Economical Surface Coverage for Quick Tasks and Procedures
The McKesson Procedure Underpad is a compact 17 by 24 inch disposable pad built for fast, one-time surface coverage in home and facility environments. A heavy-duty 3-ply tissue core quickly absorbs fluids during exams, personal care routines, dressing changes, and everyday tasks, while the blue polyethylene backsheet prevents strike-through to linens, exam tables, countertops, and furniture below.
This is the practical, high-count workhorse of the underpad category: nonsterile, latex-free, and sized for spot coverage rather than full-bed protection. Lay one down for the task at hand, then roll it up and dispose of it — no laundering, no cleanup. Packs of 50 and cases of 300 keep a fresh pad always within reach wherever quick surface protection is needed.
Pack Options
- Pack of 50 — a practical supply for home use
- Case of 300 — six packs of 50, the economical choice for facilities and frequent use
Key Features
- Heavy 3-Ply Tissue Core: The multi-layered tissue core quickly absorbs fluids for general surface coverage during exams and everyday tasks.
- Waterproof Poly Backsheet: The blue polyethylene backing prevents fluid strike-through to linens, exam tables, and furniture.
- Latex-Free: Not made with natural rubber latex, suitable for users with latex allergies or sensitivities.
- Nonsterile Disposable: Single-use design for convenient one-time use and easy disposal.
Equipment Specialist Insight: Know what this pad is for — and what it isn't. The 3-ply tissue core is right for quick, contained tasks: exam table coverage, dressing changes, grooming, spot protection under equipment. It is not a polymer-core pad, so it won't hold overnight volumes; for bed protection during sleep, pair these with a polymer pad like the McKesson Super or Ultra series and save the procedure pads for the dozens of small daily jobs where a full-size pad would be wasteful.

Q: Which side faces up?
A: The white tissue side faces up. The blue polyethylene side is the waterproof barrier and always faces down, against the table, bed, or surface being protected.
Q: How is a procedure underpad different from a polymer-core underpad?
A: A procedure pad uses layered tissue for quick absorption during short tasks, while polymer-core pads (like the McKesson Super and Ultra series) lock larger fluid volumes away for extended wear. Choose tissue pads for exams, care routines, and spot coverage; choose polymer pads for beds and overnight protection.
Q: Are these suitable for uses beyond personal care?
A: Yes — the same construction works for pet training and travel, protecting surfaces during grooming or crafts, and lining equipment trays or counters wherever a disposable waterproof layer is useful.
