CONCEPT and PRINCIPLE of NEED ELIMINATION
3. Bladder
The bladder is a smooth muscle-walled space consisting of two major parts:
the body (corpus), which is the main part of the bladder where urine
collects and, the neck (collum), which is a continuation of the funnel-shaped
inferiorly and anteriorly into a triangular area. Urogenital and associated
with the urethra.
4. Urethra
Urine leaves the bladder through the urethra and exits the body through the
urethral meatus. Under normal conditions, turbulent urene flow kepps urine
free of bacteria. The mucous membrane lines the urethra, and the urethral
glands secrete mucus into the urethral canal. Mucus is consideret to be
bacteriostatic and forms a mucosal plaque to prevent the entry of bacteria.

3. Stomach
The lumps of food enter the stomach, the largest partion of the digestive
tract. The movement of food through the stomach and intestines is made
possible by peristalsis, which is the alternating contraction and relaxation of
muscles that push food substances in a wave-like motion.
4. Small intestine
The small intestine (smooth) has three parts:
a. Duodenum, which is in direct contact with the stomach.
b. Jejenum or middle.
c. Ileum.

3. Fecal incontinence
That is a condition of not being able tocontrol bowel movements and air from the
anus, loose stools and large numbers of them. Generally accompanied by impaired
anal sphincter function, neuromuscular disease, spinal cord trauma and external
anal sphincter tumors.
4. Flatulens
Namely the accumulation of gas in the intestinal lumen, the intestinal wall is
stretched and distended, feeling full, pain and cramping. Gas usually comes out
through the mouth (burping) or the anus (flatus). The things that cause increased
gas in the intestines are the breakdown of food by bacteria that produce methane
gas, decay in the intestines that produces CO2.
5. Hemorrhoids
Namely dilatation of swollen veins in the rectal wall (can be internal on external).
