Not yet rated

Almost all people with spinal cord injury/disease (SCI/D) suffer from neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD), with a
considerable impact on quality of life. The Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany (AWMF e.V.) guideline for NBD
in SCI/D aims to provide practice-oriented support for the care of patients with NBD resulting from congenital or aquired SCI/D. The
guideline describes the diagnosis and bowel management of NBD in people with SCI/D. Thus, treatment processes in acute medical
care and rehabilitation as well as for lifelong aftercare are presented.
