In #urology, the #MitrofanoffPrinciple is the creation of a passageway for #urine or #enema fluid that, by its (#surgical) construction, has a #valve mechanism to allow #continence. Procedures which make use of the Mitrofanoff principle:

Care is fundamental in healthcare, and care is also understanding that we all have the same basic needs.

We have to get past this stigma over talking about wee, poo, and other toileting activities. It's something that we have to do every day, and if you're not, you should really be speaking to someone about that.

Many #neurodivergent people find it hard to initiate the act of going to the loo, esp if in a nice flow state concentrating on something else.

The prospect of, and then the actual boredom of being on the loo can be difficult for some.

These barriers, separately or combined can sometimes result in incontinence.

I'd be interested to hear any strategies you use to help tackle these issues, if/when they become a problem.

How is it that you can know the right thing to do, resolve to do that thing, know that you will regret not doing that thing, and yet still screw up at the last minute by choosing something else?
