摘要
A fabric of flexible material adapted to be worn around the abdomen of a patient adjacent to the protruding end of a Peritoneal Dialysis catheter and transfer tube. The front part of the belt that crosses the abdomen consists of a single panel of fabric, the back part of the main belt is made up of two pieces of fabric layered one on top of the other forming a reinforced envelope into which the transfer tube is inserted. The rest of the belt is made of an elastic band attached to each end of the main belt and featuring a fastening means. This belt serves to enclose, protect, and secure the transfer tube and prevent it from dangling. The proposed device, Tuck-Away Belt, accommodates this transfer tube, is not restrictive to active Peritoneal Dialysis patients, and is not noticeable under conventional garment. This proposed device enhances a patient's self esteem and self confidence because the transfer tube is safely tucked away underneath the garment and not easily detected, avoiding potential embarrassing situations.
