Abstract

Configurable absorbent articles with improved bodily exudate visualization when viewing a wearer-facing surface are provided. The absorbent articles include a liquid permeable topsheet forming a portion of a wearer-facing surface of the absorbent article, a liquid permeable backsheet, and an absorbent core positioned at least partially intermediate the liquid permeable topsheet and the liquid permeable backsheet. The wearer-facing surface exhibits a Delta C* of greater than about 24 and less than about 50 when the absorbent article is subjected to a Bodily Exudate Visualization Test.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to configurable absorbent articles with improved visualization of bodily exudates. The present disclosure also relates to configurable absorbent articles with improved visualization of bodily exudates. Background technique [0002] Absorbent articles are used to contain the bodily exudates (eg, urine and bowel movements) of infants, children, and adults. Absorbent articles may be used in hospitals as diapers for infants, premature infants, and / or "Neonatal Absent Syndrome" ("NAS") infants. Premature babies, babies with NAS, or other very young babies may need special care from a healthcare provider. These babies are often dependent on ventilators, artificial breastfeeders, or other life support or monitoring systems. In some cases, infants may be positioned within incubators, also known as isolets. Such babies are usually kept in a high humidity and sterile environment because they have very delicate skin that needs p...
