Incontinence Appliances ______ PART 5 INCONTINENCE APPLIANCES ___________________________________________________________________ Scottish Drug Tariff Part 5 INCONTINENCE APPLIANCES This document is dated 1st December 2019 NOTES: 1 Prescribers and suppliers should note that products not included in this part are not prescribable. 2 Attention is drawn particularly to the average life-in-use of each type of product, which, together with the pack-size, should enable prescribers to calculate their patients’ requirements with reasonable accuracy. 3 Only basic information on each product has been provided and prescribers may on occasions wish to seek further information about certain products, e.g. when assessing a patient for the first time. If so, this is always available from the manufacturers. (Addresses and phone numbers are given at the end of this part.) Information might also be sought from community nurses and community pharmacists. Where possible, manufacturers’/`supplier’ codes have been shown, but prescribers should note that the order numbers shown are not necessarily the full codes for the items that they may wish to order. This is particularly true of Urinal Systems, where additional code numbers are usually necessary to denote variations from the basic design and individual prices. 4 Prescribers are reminded that Incontinence products (others than those pads listed), incontinence garments, skin wipes and occlusive devices such as female vaginal devices and penile clamps are not prescribable under the Drug Tariff provisions. 235 PART 5 INCONTINENCE APPLIANCES ___________________________________________________________________ INCONTINENCE APPLIANCES ............................................................ 235 ANAL PLUGS ........................................................................................ 237 CATHETER VALVES ............................................................................ 237 CATHETER VALVE WITH INTEGRAL BAG ......................................... 238 DRAINABLE DRIBBLING APPLIANCES .............................................. 238 FAECAL COLLECTORS ....................................................................... 239 INCONTINENCE BELTS ....................................................................... 240 INCONTINENCE PADS ......................................................................... 241 INCONTINENCE SHEATHS .................................................................. 242 INCONTINENCE SHEATHS – FIXING STRIPS & ADHESIVES ............ 256 INSERT FOR FEMALE STRESS INCONTINENCE ............................... 257 LEG BAGS ............................................................................................ 258 NIGHT DRAINAGE BAGS ..................................................................... 271 SUSPENSORY SYSTEMS .................................................................... 277 TUBING AND ACCESSORIES .............................................................. 278 URINAL SYSTEMS................................................................................ 284 236 PART 5 INCONTINENCE APPLIANCES ___________________________________________________________________ ANAL PLUGS Warning: This product should not be used without assessment by an appropriate medical professional.

  • Part 3: Toilet Design Considerations: Micro Level
    PLANNING FOR PUBLIC TOILETS PART 3: MICRO LEVEL: TOILET DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS: Inclusive Design for Different Types of User Groups ' To a good doctor there is no physical or mental aspect of his patient which should embarrass him. He may be worried or shocked by what his diagnosis reveals, but if he's any good, he is not embarrassed. Correspondingly, therefore, there should be no type of building, and no human function related to it which should embarrass the architect!' (Architects Journal, 1953, No.117). This section looks at the 'micro' level of detailed toilet design. However, the emphasis is upon principles, and upon 'seeing' how the different components of the toilet cubicle 'work' together, because, as they say, 'the devil is in the detail'. The emphasis is again upon the user, the range of user types, and the social and qualitative factors involved, rather than upon the technical plumbing and engineering aspects dealt with elsewhere in this course programme. There is also a longer optional explanation of the issues in the second part of the paper. A PowerPoint accompanies and illustrates Part 3. Part 3 is longer because detailed issues are so important. A fuller bibliography, list of references is given at the end. In fact Part 3 may be used as a module in its own right on inclusive design. People are Important There are many detailed design guides on the precise dimensions and locations of rails, toilet pans, washbasins, mirrors etc and so it is not the purpose of this chapter to give precise guidance on these. 'The problem' is that some toilet manuals deal with each component without seeing how they inter-relate with each other spatially.

  • Public Toilets the Implications In/For Architecture by Allaa Mokdad Advisor Deirdre Hennebury
    Public Toilets The Implications In/For Architecture By Allaa Mokdad Advisor Deirdre Hennebury A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architecture in The Lawrence Technological University [2017-2018] Acknowledgments Thank you to my advisor Dr Deirdre Hennebury for all the guid- ance and support in this research inquiry; and my mom and dad and the rest of the Mokdads for all their support during the process. Preface “The toilet is the fundamental zone of interac- tion-on the most intimate level-between humans and architecture. It is the architectural space in which bodies are replenished, inspected, and culti- vated, and where one is left alone for private re- flection- to develop and affirm identity” - Koolhaas, 2014 Content Introduction 1 Abstract 2 Research Method 3 Nomenclature 4 Guiding Questions Theory 5-6 Public Toilet 7 Public 8 Private 9 Toilet Analysis 10 Introduction 11-12 Timeline 13 Definitions 14-24 London 25-31 Paris 32-38 New York 39 Conclusion 40-41 References Abstract A reflection of societal values, the public toilet is a politicized space that provides sanitation in the public realm. In addition to its role in sup- porting a basic human need through sanitation provision, the public toilet is also a space that provides solidarity in the face of congestion, a place where one develops and affirms identity [Koolhaas, 2014]. In the nineteenth century through the twen- ty-first century, the public toilet has shifted from an external urban condition to an interiorized urban issue. It once stood as a symbol of moder- nity in the congested streets of industrial cities, and progressed to be prominently featured in ac- cessibility debates.

  • The Proposals for Design of Humanized Public Toilet
    CIB W062 Symposium 2006 The Proposals for Design of Humanized Public Toilet Frank M.H. Wu [email protected] Honorable Chairman of Taiwan Toilet Association Professor of National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, Department of Architecture, Taiwan Abstract Public toilet are facilities we use everyday, but it seems to be thought of as dirty, smelly, and unsafe. How to eliminate this kind of image is of key importance, it deserves everyone’s concern and effort to amend such problem. The design priority for public toilet is humanization - it has to be designed with the need of user’s behavior. Secondly, the brightness, good ventilation and safety are important as well. Thirdly, it should be easy to clean and maintain. According to this understanding and based on my previous personal experiences of toilet designs, I would be glad to present this information to the benefit of our ”toilet family” as a whole in the hope that it will meet with overwhelming support. Keywords Humanization; Safe and comfortable; Toilet behavior of disabled people; Dressing platform for ladies. 1 Introduction Public toilets are places that everyone must use everyday; the distinction of toilet design is an issue of concern. Does it accord with our daily behavior of use or whether it is easy to clean? Taipei began to promote cleaning programs since 2000. In recent years, department stores, cinemas, restaurants, stations, markets, parks, schools, and all administrative units have dedicated their utmost efforts to work on the cleanliness. The city implemented new plans as well, that really did make some noticeable improvement in public toilets.

  • Simulated-Use Testing of Bedpan and Urinal Washer Disinfectors: Evaluation of Clostrium Difficile Spore Survival and Cleaning Efficacy
    Simulated-use testing of bedpan and urinal washer disinfectors: Evaluation of Clostrium difficile spore survival and cleaning efficacy Michelle J. Alfa, PhD, FCCM,a,b,d Nancy Olson, BSc,b and Louise Buelow-Smith, RNc Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada Background: Reusable bedpans and urinals are frequently cleaned and decontaminated using washer-disinfectors (WDs) that may be located in the central processing department (CPD) or on the ward. The objective of this study was to determine how efficiently the WDs provided cleaning and to evaluate the ability of such WDs to kill Clostridium difficile spores. Methods: The cleaning efficacy of 2 bedpan/urinal WDs (1 in the ward [ward-WD] and 1 in the CPD [CPD-WD]) were evaluated using simulated-use testing that included an ultraviolet-visible marker (UVM) that is readily removed when exposed to liquid. In addition, a proprietary test object surgical instrument (TOSI) device was used to assess the efficacy of the WDs. Artificial test soil (ATS) and C difficile spore removal and killing also were evaluated. The removal of ;106 C difficile spores and subsequent killing of these spores was assessed using autoclaved stool and/or urine as the soil challenge. Results: Reusable stainless steel bedpans, plastic bedpans, and plastic urinals were assessed. Triplicate testing done on 3 separate days using TOSI devices, UVM, ATS, and stool and urine soils indicated that the ward-WD did not demonstrate adequate cleaning. It was determined that installation errors accounted for the inadequate cleaning. But the ward-WD did not adequately inactivate C difficile spores even when the installation problems were corrected and the manufacturer-adjusted maximal thermal conditions were used.

  • Excreta Disposal in Emergencies.Indb
    4. 1st Phase Technical Options This chapter presents a range of technical options for 1st phase emergency implementation. It should be used to identify possible solutions for a specific situation. The final choice of option should be decided upon only after CONSULTATION with the intended users. 4.1 Immediate action Once the outline programme design or rough action plan has been pro- duced, immediate actions should be implemented to stabilize the current situation and prevent rapid deterioration as a result of disease transmis- sion. A range of technical options for immediate action in the 1st phase of an emergency are presented in this chapter. The priority for 1st Phase options is, undoubtedly, speed of implementa- tion. It is essential that technologies to contain excreta can be installed rapidly. Options may have limited socio-cultural acceptability due to the need for speed but, wherever possible, members of the affected commu- nity should be consulted regarding the distribution and type of facilities to be implemented. Efforts should be made to separate facilities by sex and to address any major cultural practices or beliefs relating to excreta disposal. If this is not done there is a real danger that facilities will not be used at all. Selected options are likely to have limited sustainability, since they are designed for use in the immediate emergency phase only. It is important, however, that likely, future excreta disposal options are considered at this 51 EXCRETA DISPOSAL IN EMERGENCIES stage to ensure that immediate measures do not have a detrimental effect on longer-term solutions. 4.2 Managing open defecation In the initial stages of an emergency, areas where people can defecate, rather than where they cannot, should be provided immediately.

  • SNF QRP Help Desk Questions and Answers- March 2017
    Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Reporting Program (SNF QRP) Help Desk Questions and Answers (Q+As) and Quarterly Updates March 2017 The Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) Quality Reporting Program (QRP) was implemented on October 1, 2016. This document is intended to provide guidance on questions that were received by the SNF QRP Help Desk from October-December of 2016 (Section 1). This document also contains quarterly updates and events from October-December 2016 (Section 2) as well as upcoming updates for the next quarter, from January-March 2017 (Section 3). Guidance contained in this document may be time-limited, and may be superseded by guidance published by CMS at a later date. Section 1: Help Desk Frequently Asked Questions and Answers Question Answer Data Submission Requirements What new data submission The IMPACT Act of 2014 established the Skilled Nursing Facility Quality Reporting Program (SNF requirements are there as a result of QRP). The IMPACT Act requires post-acute care providers to submit standardized patient/resident the SNF QRP? assessment data and other necessary data specified by the Secretary with respect to five quality domains. Providers should use MDS 3.0 version 1.14.1 to submit data required for submission for SNF QRP, which includes a new discharge assessment, Medicare Part A PPS Discharge assessment and a new Section on the MDS 3.0, Section GG. The Part A PPS Discharge assessment contains data elements used to calculate current and future SNF QRP quality measures under the IMPACT Act. A Part A PPS Discharge Assessment is required when the resident’s Medicare Part A stay ends (as documented in A2400C, End Date of Most Recent Medicare Stay) but the resident remains in the facility.
