- Abstract
The article discusses various aspects of the management of urinary incontinence in dementia patients, and it mentions nurse-patient relations, drug therapy, and the therapeutic use of penile sheaths. Incontinence pads and diapers and efforts to reduce catheter-associated urinary traction infections are examined, along with a patient's dignity and the use of antimuscarinic drugs such as tolterodine, oxybutynin, and solifenacin.
