The combination of weakened perineal muscles, urinary tract as well as other infections, and interruptions in peristalsis (whether neurogenic or medication induced) all contribute to a common problem among ventilator-dependent individuals—stool and urine incontinence—with its attending consequence of skin breakdown. Reduced ambulation, the inability to transfer to a toilet for evacuation, and general cognitive impairment often impair resolution of these issues. The resulting low self-esteem becomes a further barrier.

Urethral overactivity and/or bladder underactivity is known as overflow incontinence. The bladder is filled to capacity but is unable to empty, causing urine to leak from a distended bladder past a normal outlet and sphincter. Common causes of urethral overactivity include benign prostatic hyperplasia (see Chap. 82) prostate cancer (see Chap. 65) and, in women, cystocele formation or surgical overcorrection after UI surgery.

Identifying delirium quickly can save your patient s life. Its treatment requires identifying the underlying cause and eliminating it. One important point to remember is that patients with dementia can also become delirious. The most common scenario is a patient with moderate dementia who is incontinent of urine and wears a protective undergarment. If such a patient rapidly deteriorates, it is probably not due to the dementia. Instead, this patient likely has a bladder infection that is superimposing a delirium on the dementia. By treating the bladder infection with antibiotics, the patient can quickly return to their baseline state.

Super slurper has wondrous properties, and it amazed people when it was first demonstrated. For some time no one seemed to know how to exploit its potential, then in 1968 chemists came up with the idea of incorporating polyacrylates into diapers, Here was a way to keep urine away from a baby s bottom and reduce diaper rash. The Japanese, always at the forefront of high-tech innovation, ate it up. Not literally, of course, but they could have — toxicity tests showed that the material was remarkably safe. By 1984 North Americans had also discovered the advantages of superabsorbent diapers, and the product rapidly dominated the market. Soon feminine hygiene products were also incorporating the new technology, as were adult incontinence products.

In a review of the renal and metabolic complications of lithium, the example of a 78-year-old woman taking longterm lithium who had urinary incontinence, moderate renal insufficiency, a 5-7 litres 24-hour urine volume, and thyroid and parathyroid abnormalities was used to set the scene (306). 

Clozapine and risperidone have been compared in 10 patients with psychosis in Parkinson s disease, who were randomized to risperidone or clozapine for 12 weeks (95). The mean improvement in the total BPRS score was 3.0 with clozapine (mean dose 62.5 mg/day) and 6.0 with risperidone (mean dose 1.2 mg/day). The white blood cell count fell below 3.0 x 109/1 after 10 weeks in one subject taking clozapine and rose to 5.0 x 109/1 after withdrawal. One subject taking clozapine had a marked increase in rigidity and incontinence of urine after 4 weeks, and there were similar effects in a patient who took risperidone for 10 weeks. All three adverse events resolved on withdrawal.
