Childhood incontinence is often neglected as a major focus for healthcare professionals, the assumption being that all children will eventually grow out of any problems they may have. However, many do not and this can lead to the devastating effects of incontinence on a child's social, mental and physical health.
This comprehensive text explores all continence problems in children and gives practical, easy-to-adopt guidance on how they can be controlled and managed in the clinical and community setting. Chapters are written by leading practitioners from a range of disciplines: nursing, medicine, surgery, psychology and education. The book emphasises the importance of thorough assessment and identification of the causes of incontinence, and advises on addressing problems in the most appropriate way for the individual child.
Busy practitioners will welcome having key points highlighted at the start of each chapter, as well as extensive real case studies, useful resources, and a full glossary of key terms.
Topics covered include:
Effective Management of Bladder and Bowel Problems in the Child
