Incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD), sometimes referred to as perineal dermatitis, is an inflammation of the skin associated with exposure to urine or stool. IAD effects are costly, painful, and, for the most part, preventable. Although further research is required to evaluate the effectiveness of the various available interventions, it can be assumed that those solutions that result in a drier patient can effectively prevent IAD.
