	just a few bits to keep you going till friday.continence is compromised in the elderley due to anumber of factors eg medication,infection but not necessarily a uti,although an msu should be tested to rule it out.pelvic floor weakness through surgery.like i said there are anumber of factors.toileting programs are a good idea but dont always work especially if the client is a dementia sufferrer.on the other hand untreated incontinence can lead to pressure damage.barrier creams and sprilon spray assist in this in which case pressure relief equipment should be in situ.bladder scans will show if a client is retaining urine after passing it.amounts over100mls retained will need inveatigation as abowel problem may be the cause.hope it helps till friday.elaine Edited by elaineo2 - 11 Apr 2007 at 7:45pm
