ABSTRACT:
A garment (10) to be worn by an incontinent, sedentary person includes a front sheet (12) for covering the front of the person from the waist to below the knees, and a backsheet (14) sewn to the back, lower end of the front sheet along three seams parallel with the length of the front sheet to provide wide, loose leg sleeves (24,26) through which the person's legs are extended. A tie string (16) extends across the top of the front sheet for tying the top of the front sheet about the waist of the person. The leg sleeves and the tie string hold the garment on the person to thereby prevent exposure of the front of the person's abdominal region and legs but yet the front sheet leaves a gap at the rear of the person for allowing passage of body waste from the person without soiling the garment.
