老人尿失禁的照護技巧The Techniques of Caring the Aging with Urinary Incontinence 王炯珵 恩主公醫院泌尿科 Chung Cheng Wang Department of Urology En Chu Kong Hospital
State of the Science on Urinary Incontinence • Nurses have in their toolboxes some help for first-line UI intervention and screening [Diane Newman, 2002 July] • The first priority is to increase awareness among nurses. [Mary Palmer, 2003AJN] • Noninvasive behavioral interventions can be effective in long-term care setting • But staff compliance was problematic [Palmer MH 1997]
Epidemiology • 20 million American have UI [Abram P 2002] • 22% of women aged 65 and older had UI in daily life [Tseng 2000] • More than 50% of nursing home residents [Fantl J,1996]
Differences in Gender • Female: male = 2:1[Hunskaar S 2001] • stress or mixed UI: female • Pure urge UI: equal • Postvoid dribbling, nocturnal enuresis: male [Temml C 2000] • Women were more likely to regularly use strategies for UI management [Johnson TM 2000]
Risk Factors in Women • Gravidity and parity • One vaginal birth: 2.5 times for UI [Nygaard IE 1994] • Breech presentation, use of forceps, tearing, central episiotomy, oxytocin • Pelvic organ prolapse • Gynecologic surgery • Menopause • Obesity [Roe B 1999]
Risk Factors in Men • A history of radical or transurethral prostatectomy[Umlauf 1996] • The first year of admission to a long-term care facility [Palmer MH 1991] • Causes of urge UI in elderly men: UTI, prostate inflammation, bowel dysfunction [Herzog AR 1990]
UI in the Frail Elderly • Frail: decline in physical activity [Bortx WM 2002] • Frail elderly: >65, UI, can not go out without assistance, dementia, admitted to a long-term care facility [Fonda D 1998]
Risk Factors in Frail Elderly • Multiple medical morbidities • Immobility • Cognitive impairment (dementia)
Screening • Routine assessment for UI can be easily incorporated into the general history questions [Feneley RC BJU 1997] • Screening by risk factors • Urge UI + Nocturia >2 + daytime voiding frequency of < 2hr = 90% detrusor overactivity on UDS [Gray M, 2001]
Assessment of UI in the Frail Older Adult • History and symptom assessment • Clinical and physical assessment • Environmental assessment • Identify possible diagnosis or clinical impression
Potential Reverse Causes • Delirium, dementia, depression • Infection (UTI) • Atrophic vaginitis • Pharmaceuticals • Psychological, Pain • Excess fluid (polyuria, edema) • Restricted mobility • Stool (constipation)
Behavioral Therapy • AHCPR guideline • Bladder training: strongly recommended for urge and mixed incontinence and also recommended for stress UI • Pelvic floor rehabilitation: strongly recommended for stress UI • The first line of treatment[Fantl J 1996]
Nonpharmacologic Management of UI in Adults • Lifestyle or risk factors modification • Scheduled voiding regimens • Pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation • Anti-incontinence devices • Supportive interventions
Lifestyle Modification • Reduce risk factors • Stress UI: smoking cessation,change body position [Norton PA 1994], weight reduction [Deitel M 1988] • Constipation: good bowel hygiene • Urge UI: caffeine reduction, selected dietary and fluid modification • No study support: bladder irritants, alcohol [Wyman JF 2000]
Nonpharmacologic Management of UI in Adults • Lifestyle or risk factors modification • Scheduled voiding regimens • Pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation • Devices • Supportive intervention
Scheduled Voiding Regimens • Timed voiding • Habit retraining • Patterned urge response toileting • Prompted voiding • Bladder training
Nonpharmacologic Management of UI in Adults • Lifestyle or risk factors modification • Scheduled voiding regimens • Pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation • Anti-incontinence devices • Supportive intervention
Pelvic Floor Muscle Rehabilitation • Pelvic floor muscle exercise • Vaginal weight training • Biofeedback • Electric stimulation • Magnetic stimulation
Nonpharmacologic Management of UI in Adults • Lifestyle or risk factors modification • Scheduled voiding regimens • Pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation • Anti-incontinence devices • Supportive intervention
Anti-incontinence Device • Intravaginal support device • External occlusive device • Intraurethral occlusive device • Complex valved catheter • External collection device • Urethral catheter
Intravaginal Support Device • Pessary • Support the bladder neck, relieve minor pelvic prolapse and change pressure transmission • Stress UI • Estrogen replacement for postmenopausal women
External Occlusive Device • A small single-use device that covers the urethral meatus for women • A penile clamp for men • Need good manual dexterity • Complication: periurethral irritation or penile erosion
Intraurethral Occlusive Device • Urethral plug • A small single-use device that is worn in the urethra to provide mechanical obstruction • Used for stress UI in cognitively intact patient • Complication: urethral irritation, hematuria, UTI or migrate into bladder
Complex Valved Catheter • Intraurethral occlusive device with a unidirectional valve • Left indwelling for long period • Must be inserted and removed by a clinician • Being test for female stress UI, overflow UI • Complication: urethral irritation, hematuria, UTI
External Collection Device • Condom catheter with leg bag • Used in men with urge, stress and overflow UI and in those with functionally impairment • More comfortable, less painful and less restrictive than use of an indwelling catheter [Saint S 1999] • Risk for UTI, penile skin marceration
Urethral Catheters • Disposable, single-use catheter and indwelling catheters • Used for overflow UI • Bedbound, mobility impairment and severe UI • Clean intermittent catheterization is the standard care of spinal cord injury [Perrouin-Verbe B 1995]
Indications for Long-term Indwelling Catheters • Persistent overflow UI, symptomatic UTI or kidney disease • Surgical or pharmacologic intervention failed • Contraindication for CIC • Changes of bedding, clothing and absorbent products may be painful or disruptive for p’t with an irreversible medical condition • Not healed grade 3-4 pressure ulcers • Patients live alone without a caregiver
Nonpharmacologic Management of UI in Adults • Lifestyle or risk factors modification • Scheduled voiding regimens • Pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation • Anti-incontinence devices • Supportive intervention
Supportive Interventions • Toileting substitutes and other environmental modifications • Physical and occupational therapy • Absorbent products
Toileting Substitutes and Other Environmental Modifications • Urinals, bedside commodes, elevated toilet seats • Used for patients with mobility impairment that make it difficult to reach a toilet in a timely fashion
Physical and Occupational Therapy • Gait and strength training • Used for frail older patients with mobility or manual dexterity impairments that make it difficult to reach a toilet and disrobe in a timely fashion
Absorbent Products • Reusable and disposable pads and pants system • Some products contain a polymer that absorbs urine and binds with urine, changing it into gel[Newman D 2002] • Used for all types of incontinence • But never be used solely for the convenience of the caregiver
Behavioral Therapy in Frail Elders • Adequate fluid intake • Bowel regularity • Perineal hygiene • Voiding every 2 to 4 hours • Avoid caffeine in urge UI • Toileting programs
Skin Care • Perineal hygiene after toileting • Skin dryness • Comfortable clothes • Skin ulcer: isolation cream, Duoderm, Comfeel
Prevention of Excess Disability • The two primary risk factors for UI among the frail elderly are immobility and cognitive impairment • Tailored programs that enhance physical mobility and cognitive function [Schnelle J 2000] • Optimal management of acute and chronic illness • Environmental modification • Prosthetic support [Weindrug R 1991]
Algorithm -- I • Three-day bladder record, measure RU • Determine which type of UI • What trigger it • Individual care plans • Four goals: fewer incontinence episodes, daytime continence, 24-hour continence, the prevention of skin breakdown and odor
Algorithm -- II • Behavioral interventions • Ambulatory assistance • Cognitively intact PFM training • Passive exercise • Goal one to goal three • Goal four is reserved for comatose or very debilitated patients
