Urinary, faecal or mixed incontinence is one of the most common problems that impact people’s quality of life, whether due to some kind of disability, illnesses that affect the cognitive capacity or simply as a natural process of ageing or in the initial stages of life.
Incontinence can be tackled from different non-pharmacological approaches using catheters, collectors, nappies, nappy pants, etc.
For all these reasons, the Health Service must have a wide variety of these types of products available in order to respond to the specific characteristics of each individual and to minimise any type of complication that may have direct effects on the mobility, skin integrity and self-esteem of users.
