Abstract
A disposable comfort pad for bedpans having a pad member shaped to cover the flesh-engaging seat portion of a bed pan. The bottom or underside of the pad member, at least in the distal end areas and bight portion area, is coated with pressure sensitive adhesive which is shielded prior to use of the pad by sheet material which can be readily stripped away. At least one, and preferably three, pul tabs or loops project from the pad member for use in removing the pad from a bedpan. The pad member has an inexpensive filling within an envelope or cover formed of soft, thin, plastic film.
