Up to 47 % of Czech and Slovak patients with involuntary leakage of urine or stool suffer from accompanying skin manifestations, such as sores or incontinence dermatitis. Moreover, the prevalence and severity of dermal manifestations triple in patients with reduced mobility. Therefore, regular and sufficient hygiene of incontinent patients' intimate parts is essential for improving their comfort and quality of life. This article, which loosely follows up a series of articles on medical devices, aims to provide an overview of cosmetics specifically designed for incontinent patients, focusing on practical advice on their use and proper hygiene.

Keywords: incontinence, cosmetic preparations, incontinence-associated dermatitis, cleaners, preservatives, skin hydration.
