The final chapter is about other issues in gastrointestinal (GI) care and incorporates other important issues related to GI care that do not easily fall into other categories. This will ensure that as many GI-related topics as possible are covered to provide the nurse with a fuller understanding of GI nursing. This chapter incorporates issues related to scars, such as changes in body image and how this can cause psychological issues. Finally, issues related to sexuality, such as sexual dysfunction and erectile dysfunction, will be explored. Concise explanations of the issues within this chapter can aid the nurse, although it is often difficult for nurses to discuss these topics in a busy clinical environment.
