Bladder voiding modalities and autonomy in bowel management were assessed according to the Gruppo Italiano Studio Epidemiologico Mielolesioni (GISEM) study. Increasing stool volumes with regular oral fibre supplementation, together with oral laxatives such as senna preparations given the night before combined with either manual removal, a mini-enema or in well-trained/ experienced patients a colonic lavage (such as Coloplast) are key ingredients of an effective flaccid bowel management programme. According to Dr Bernard Jensen, in his book Tissue Cleansing Through Bowel Management, the accumulation can have the consistency of tyre rubber: 'it's that hard and black'. |
