ABSTRACT:
An umbilical girdle for securing the navel of newborns, and characterized by the fact that it comprises one tubular piece formed from an elastic mesh (1) and provided in its border portions with an elastic edge. The measurements of the girdle in a state of contraction and repose and its degree of elasticity adjust to the measurements of the midsection of the newborn (2), so that when in use it adheres gently but firmly around the abdomen in such a way that it secures a compress (3) and the fastening clip on the stub of the umbilical cord without causing discomfort to the user. The placement and removal of the mesh is performed quickly and simply without having to wrap it around the newborn's body.
