Incontinence-associated dermatitis: protecting the older person.

As the older population in the UK continues to grow, so too will the number of people presenting with dermatological problems. Older people's skin is subject to dehydration internally and environmental factors externally. If, in addition, the individual suffers continence problems, he or she is at risk of painful incontinence-associated dermatitis, or even formation of a moisture lesion. The use of an effective barrier cream that gives protection while not interfering with continence pad efficacy can be an invaluable means of comfort to the older person.
