Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Elderly dementia patients living in elderly care facilities engage in frequent voluntary excretion behavior, in other words the “behavior of going to the bathroom alone while risking falling down”. The excretion status of elderly patients that frequently had night-time bathroom visits was investigated using voiding diaries. The results showed normal voided volume per void and hardly any residual urine, indicating that the behavior was motivated by the desire to void. As the cause of nocturia is night-time polyuria, the present stud revealed the need for assistance in addressing night-time polyuria
