Incontinence defines the inability to control the elimination of urine or faeces and varies from minor "accidents" (wetting the linen) to the complete involuntary elimination of urine or faeces.

The skin of people with incontinence requires special care, because the aggressive substances in the urine/faeces they come in contact with, destroy the natural barrier function of the skin, leaving it vulnerable to irritations, infections, skin lesions.
