Session Objectives:
- Reviewing the extent of the problem of co-existent LUT and bowel dysfunction.
- Educating on the essentials of a bowel management pathway: bowel symptoms are the primary source of distress to many patients with neurological and idiopathic pelvic floor dysfunction. Management plans are best based on pathophysiology and individual symptom burden. Successful management of bowel function improves urinary symptoms.
- Addressing how integrating bowel management in the care of patients can improve patient QoL, bowel dysfunction but also LUTS.
- Discussing and exploring different practical models of embedding bowel and bladder management in the care of patients.
