Incontinence can either be reversible or irreversible depending on the type and the cause. If irreversible, the nurse will assist the patient in finding a method of managing the condition that they are comfortable with. The presence of incontinent episodes can negatively…

    | MusculoskeletalMuscle mass is a primary primary source of metabolic heat. When muscles contract, heat is generated. The heat generated by muscle contraction maintains body temperature in the range required for normal function of its various chemical processes. As early as the third decade of life there is a general reduction in size, elasticity and strength of all mass continues throughout the elder years. Muscle fibers continue to become smaller in diameter due to a decrease in reserves of ATP, glycogen, myoglobin and number of myofibrils. As result, as the body ages, muscular activity becomes less efficient and requires more effort to accomplish given task. The elderly are less efficient at creating the heat necessary to drive the important biochemical reactions necessary for life.http://www.rnceus.com/hypo/physage.htm…
