A client with multiple sclerosis (MS) is experiencing bowel incontinence and is starting a bowel retraining program. Which strategy is inappropriate?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
Limiting fluid intake to 1,000 mL/day is inappropriate, as adequate hydration is needed for bowel function. High-fiber diet, regular elimination times, and elevated toilet seats support bowel retraining.
