Product Information

Full details

The Vivactive Slip Maxi XL is designed for adults experiencing heavy incontinence, offering a highly absorbent and secure solution. Its key benefit is superior leak protection through an innovative triple-layer system, ensuring comfort and practicality. A potential caveat is that while highly absorbent, it is part of a range, and even higher protection levels are available in the 'Ultimate' range for the most severe needs.

FAQs

What makes the TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ system effective?

The TRIPLE LAYER LOCK™ system typically involves multiple layers designed to quickly absorb and lock away moisture, preventing it from returning to the surface and containing it within the core, thus reducing leak risk.

How do I ensure I have the correct size?

Refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart. Measure your waist and hip circumference and choose the size that falls within the recommended range for the best fit and protection.

Are these suitable for overnight use?

Yes, the Vivactive Slip Maxi XL is designed with high absorbency capacity, making it suitable for overnight protection against heavy incontinence.

Can these be worn by men and women?

Yes, Vivactive Slip Maxi XL is a unisex product designed for adult use, suitable for both men and women.

How many slips are in a pack?

This specific product, the Vivactive Slip Maxi XL, comes in a pack of 15 slips.

What is the difference between Maxi and Ultimate ranges?

The 'Maxi' range offers high absorbency for heavy needs, while the 'Ultimate' range provides even higher levels of protection for the most severe incontinence.

How should used slips be disposed of?

Used slips should be disposed of in a sanitary manner, typically wrapped securely and placed in a household waste bin. They should never be flushed down the toilet.

Troubleshooting

Leakage occurs

Ensure the slip is the correct size and fitted securely. Check that the leg cuffs are properly deployed and creating a seal around the legs. Avoid overfilling the slip; change it when it reaches its capacity.

Skin irritation

Ensure the slip is not too tight. Maintain good skin hygiene by cleaning and drying the skin thoroughly at each change. Consider using a barrier cream if irritation persists. Ensure you are using the correct absorbency level for your needs.

Tapes not adhering well

Ensure the area where the tapes attach is clean and dry. Avoid getting lotions or creams on the tapes. If tapes are repeatedly failing, consider if the product size is appropriate or if the slip has reached its absorbency limit.
