Answer to Question 2
A
Constipation is present when fewer than three bowel movements occur per week or when the frequency decreases. Mineral oil and saline laxatives can be harmful. Fiber, fruit, and fluids are the first recommendations; stimulant laxatives such as senna and cascara can be used on a short-term basis. Altered cognitive status, increased agitation, and unexplained falls can be symptoms of constipation; these behaviors may be the only clinical symptom of constipation in cognitively impaired older persons. Excessive sleep has not been identified as a symptom. Liquid feces may be leaking around a fecal impaction, and antidiarrheal treatment can aggravate the impaction.
