Abstract:

Objective: to evaluate the suitability and usefulness of mobile apps aimed at urinary incontinence rehabilitation in the male population. Method: descriptive study, carried out with apps directed to the rehabilitation of male urinary incontinence. The apps were obtained from the Play Store and App Store. The search was conducted between May 3 and 10, 2021, in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The terms "urinary incontinence", "incontinencia urinaria", "urinary incontinence", and "Kegel" were used for selection. The applications were described and evaluated as established in the Applications Scoring System items. Results: Twenty-two apps were selected. Three were specific for men; three addressed exercises for pelvic muscle strengthening and voiding diary simultaneously; and five were compatible with both online stores. Conclusion: most of the available apps have limited functionality and information about male urinary incontinence. This study is expected to contribute to the development of more comprehensive and appropriate software for the male urinary incontinent population.

Abstract Objective To determine whether there is an increased risk of urinary incontinence in daughters and sisters of incontinent women. Design Population based cross sectional study. Setting EPINCONT (the epidemiology of incontinence in the county of Nord-Trøndelag study), a substudy of HUNT 2 (the Norwegian Nord-Trøndelag health survey 2), 1995-7. Participants 6021 mothers, 7629 daughters, 332 granddaughters, and 2104 older sisters of 2426 sisters. Main outcome measures Adjusted relative risks for urinary incontinence. Results The daughters of mothers with urinary incontinence had an increased risk for urinary incontinence (1.3, 95% confidence interval 1.2 to 1.4; absolute risk 23.3%), stress incontinence (1.5, 1.3 to 1.8; 14.6%), mixed incontinence (1.6, 1.2 to 2.0; 8.3%), and urge incontinence (1.8, 0.8 to 3.9; 2.6%). If mothers had severe symptoms then their daughters were likely to have such symptoms (1.9, 1.3 to 3.0; 4.0%). The younger sisters of female siblings with urinary incontinence, stress incontinence, or mixed incontinence had increased relative risks of, respectively, 1.6 (1.3 to 1.9; absolute risk 29.6%), 1.8 (1.3 to 2.3; 18.3%), and 1.7 (1.1 to 2.8; 10.8%). Conclusion Women are more likely to develop urinary incontinence if their mother or older sisters are incontinent.

Abstract:

Background: Among women urinary incontinence (UI) is the most familiar problem and complain of lower urinary symptoms in urinary incontinence has found between 15% and 55%. It is a symptom with a lot of influence on quality of life of women majorly in their community-based, confidential and sexual domains. Aim: To see the impact of urinary incontinence on quality of life among females receiving pelvic floor muscles strengthening exercises for urinary incontinence. Study design: Cross-sectional study. Methodology: Patients (n=165) females with urinary incontinence were enrolled. The effect of urine incontinence on female quality of life, as well as the effect of pelvic floor muscle strengthening exercises on urine incontinency. The study inquired about the respondents' backgrounds, daily routines, and the impact of incontinence on their social relationships, as well as the effects of urine incontinence on emotional and mental health. All female volunteers who have been dealing with urine incontinence for a few months will be included in the study. Analysis of data was done by SPSS v.26. Results: They were having physiotherapy for urine incontinency and it had not affected their quality of life but shown a positive effect in their household, social and personal activities. When the standard scoring method of IIQ-7 questionnaire applied the results of 0=Not at all,1= slightly, 2= moderate, 3= greatly, total mean of 7 items was 2.60 and 85% out of 100 get recovered and their quality of life improved by physiotherapy. Conclusion: It was concluded that the females who were receiving pelvic floor muscles strengthening exercises had good quality of life and urinary incontinence had not affected their quality of life (IIQ-7 score = 2.60) and had good impact on their quality of life. Keywords: Urine Incontinency, Quality of Life, Physiotherapy and Pelvic Floor Muscles.

Abstract:

Urinary incontinence in juvenile female dogs is often associated with urogenital anatomic anomalies. Study objectives include: (1) determine hospital prevalence of urinary incontinence in juvenile female soft-coated wheaten terriers (SCWTs) compared to other affected dogs; (2) characterize anatomic anomalies affecting urinary incontinent juvenile female SCWTs utilizing uroendoscopy; and (3) compare incidence of ectopic ureters, paramesonephric remnants, and short urethras in juvenile female urinary incontinent SCWTs to other juvenile female dogs with urinary incontinence. We hypothesize juvenile SCWTs have an increased prevalence of urinary incontinence and an increased incidence of ectopic ureters, paramesonephric remnants, and short urethras compared to non-SCWTs with urinary incontinence within our hospital population. Medical records of female dogs 6 mo of age and younger with clinical signs of urinary incontinence and video uroendoscopic evaluation presenting to The Ohio State University Veterinary Medical Center from January 2000 to December 2011 were reviewed. Twelve juvenile SCWTs and 107 juvenile non-SCWTs met the inclusion criteria. Juvenile SCWTs were found to have an increased hospital prevalence of urinary incontinence compared to other affected breeds. Observed anomalies in SCWTs include: ectopic ureters, shortened urethras, paramesonephric remnants, and bifid vaginas. This information will help guide veterinarians in recognizing a breed-related disorder of the lower urogenital tract in SCWTs.

Abstract:

The purpose of study. To analyze genetic polymorphisms of receptors of bladder, structural components of intercellular matrix of urinary excretion organs, molecular biochemical mechanisms of regulation of function of bladder and urethra resulting in urinary incontinency. Materials and methods. The analysis of publication data concerning genetic polymorphisms and molecular biochemical mechanisms of development of urinary incontinence in women. The results. The publication data is presented concerning impact of genetic polymorphisms of receptors of detrusor on development of urgent and mixed urinary incontinency in women. The corresponding molecular genetic and biochemical processes underlying detrusor sphincter dyssynergia in women are considered. Conclusion. The urinary incontinence is a multifactorial pathology developing due to alterations at systemic, organic, tissular and cellular levels. Such growth factors as bFGF, TGFβ, CTGF contribute into pathogenesis of urgent and partially mixed urinary incontinency resulting in intensification of unstripped muscle cohesions of detrusor, obstructive miohypertrophy and fibrosis of bladder wall. The altered adrenalin reactivity of urinary excretion ways plays particular role in pathogenesis of urgent component of urinary incontinence. And vice versa, damage of structure of connective tissue in patients with polymorphism COL1A1 or disorder of molecular biochemical mechanism of action of cytokines TGFβ and CTGF provoke insufficiency of sphincter apparatus of urinary excretion ways. The totality of enumerated mechanisms results in development of stress urinary incontinency. The elaboration of individual approach to selection of treatment method requires consideration of mentioned mechanisms of development of urinary incontinence including form and severity of disease.

Abstract:

The aim was to identify and analyze studies on the quality of life and life experiences of men with urinary incontinence. Through critical review of the literature, data were analyzed using content analysis technique based on psychodynamic references. The results were grouped into two themes: Psychosocial lived experience aspects of men with urinary incontinence; Men's lived experience in the management of urinary incontinence. Men with urinary incontinence experienced a low self-image along with a sense of social stigma associated to the image of a deteriorated body. Seeking treatment when the incontinence is mild and making use of psychological and social mechanisms to adapt to the urinary incontinence. The study shows that incontinent men to have low expectation regarding treatment due to the lack of knowledge about existing therapies and strategies to urinary loss control.

Abstract:

Urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse are common conditions affecting the elderly. A careful evaluation of urinary incontinence, including history and physical examination, will often determine the etiology of this condition. Vaginal pessaries are a safe and effective treatment for both urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse. They should be considered a viable alternative to surgery especially in the elderly with complicated medical histories. This article reviews the etiology of urinary incontinence, offers a guide in the evaluation of the incontinent woman, and reviews the use of pessaries for the treatment of incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.

Abstract:

Objective: No previous research has investigated whether there is an association between anxiety disorders and urinary incontinence. We hypothesized that anxiety disorders would be associated with increased urinary incontinence related disability. Method: Continuing participants who were aged 50 years and older in a longitudinal study of community-dwelling adults who were initially living in East Baltimore in 1981 ( n = 787). Participants were classified as incontinent if any uncontrolled urine loss within the 12 months prior to the interview was reported. Urinary incontinence related functional loss was further assessed based on a series of questions relating directly to participants' inability to engage in certain activities due to their urinary incontinence. Anxiety disorders were assessed with standardized interviews. Results: Persons meeting criteria for an anxiety disorder were no more likely to have urinary incontinence than were persons without anxiety disorders (unadjusted odds ratio (OR) = 1.36, 95 percent confidence interval (CI) [0.96, 1.93]). Among people with urinary incontinence ( n = 159), persons meeting criteria for anxiety disorders in 1981 and in 1994 were much more likely to report urinary incontinence related functional impairment in 1994 (adjusted OR = 6.51, 95 percent CI [1.42, 29.86]). Conclusions: Individuals with changes in day-to-day routines or activities secondary to urinary incontinence were more likely to meet criteria for an anxiety disorder than were other older adults. Further studies must tease out the temporal relationship and whether early detection of urinary incontinence and associated anxiety improves quality of life and functioning.

Abstract:

Incontinence is a common and distressing condition of later life. Prevalence studies have reported rates of urinary incontinence from about 3% to 60%, depending on how incontinence is defined and the type of population studied. There is much less information about the prevalence of faecal incontinence. However, some studies have found approximately 2% of the general population and about 60% of the nursing home population to be incontinent of faeces. Although some studies have examined the impact of urinary incontinence on health status, the impact of faecal incontinence has not been investigated previously. Quantification of the prevalence and specific impact on health of common disorders such as incontinence will help commissioners and providers in the prioritization of diagnostic and therapeutic services for this distressing condition. With this in mind, we report the relevant results of the Tipping the Balance Survey, which quantified the prevalence and impact on self-perceived health, anxiety and depression of both faecal and urinary incontinence.

Abstract:

Our aim of this study was to determine the incidence of urinary incontinence in women living in a family health center district in the province of Van, the effect of birth rate and type of delivery on urinary incontinence, the awareness level of women in this subject. This is a descriptive-cross-sectional study. The study was conducted by face to face survey method in women gave birth who applied to Family Health Center no.1 in Ipekyolu District. 227 women who agreed to participate in the study were included in the study. The mean number of pregnancies was 4.13 ± 0.71, 83 of the women (36.6%) stated that they had incontinent. 31 (37.3%) reported compression type, 25 (30.1%) stress type and 27 (32.6%) mixed type incontinence, 170 (74.9%) of the women see urinary incontinence as a health problem. The high number of children significantly increases urinary incontinence. Urinary incontinence is significantly higher in patients with diabetes mellitus. Women who have had their birth at home have higher urinary incontinence incidence than the women who have had all their births at hospital. Receiving education for 8 years and below increases to see urinary incontinence as a health problem. It is important in terms of women's health to educate women on reproductive health, to make full use of family planning services and to take all necessary measures to make all deliveries in hospital.

ABSTRACTObjective: to identify the prevalence of women with urinary incontinence and verify the presence of factors triggering stress urinary incontinence. Method: this is a quantitative, descriptive, and transversal study developed with 94 women ranging from 30 to 80 years of age, living in a neighborhood of Sobral, Ceará, Brazil. The instrument was applied through a domiciliary survey carried out between November 2009 and January 2010. The project was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of Universidade Estadual Vale do Acaraú, under the Opinion 804. Results: out of the 94 women interviewed, 35 had pollakiuria, 39 urinary urgency, 39 overactive bladder, 40 nocturia, 35 urine loss on effort, and 13 urinary infection. The most prevalent age group for urinary incontinence was young women. The route of delivery, number of pregnancies, and episiotomy have a direct influence on involuntary urine loss and urine loss on efforts. Conclusion: there are many urinary complaints and the prevalence of urine loss in the sample under study was of 37%. Urinary incontinence requires an adequate care from the basic health professionals and the physical therapists of the Multiprofessional Residence in Family Health, aiming at the diagnosis, adequate therapeutic method, referral to the reference service, so that these women can receive appropriate care and achieve a better quality of life.

Abstract:

Until recently, the impact of urinary incontinence (UI) on working women, a population generally characterized as healthy, has not been the focus of research. Women employed full time at a large university center participated in a cross sectional survey about UI. Of the 1,113 women surveyed, age 18 and older, 21 % (n = 232) reported UI at least monthly. Incontinent women were significantly older and had a higher body mass index than continent women. Using disposable products, limiting fluids, avoiding caffeinated beverages, using voiding schedules, and keeping extra clothes or underwear were strategies used to manage UI at work. Responses to an open ended question related to the impact of UI on working life included: interference with sleep and resulting fatigue at work, embarrassment, alteration of concentration, and emotional distress. Implications for nurses are discussed in relation to assessment, education, and management of UI in the occupational setting.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction and Hypothesis Female urinary incontinence (UI) has a negative impact on sexual function and sexual quality of life (QoL) in women. But there is still no consensus on the type of UI or the prevalence of sexual dysfunction (SD). The aim of the study was to evaluate sexual disorders in women with overactive bladder (OAB) compared to patients with urinary stress incontinence (SUI) and healthy controls. Materials and Methods 106 women presenting to a urogynecological outpatient clinic (referral clinic) were investigated using standardized questionnaires and the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI-d). All 65 incontinent women underwent a full urodynamic examination; the controls (31) were non-incontinent women in the same age range who came for routine check-ups or minor disorders not involving micturition or pelvic floor function. Women with mixed urinary incontinence, a history of previous medical or surgical treatment for UI, recurrent urinary tract infections, previous radiation therapy or pelvic organ prolapse of more than stage 2 on the Pelvic Organ Prolapse Quantification (POP-Q) system were excluded. Results 100 questionnaires could be evaluated (94.3%). Thirty-four women had urinary stress incontinence, 35 had OAB, 31 were controls. Mean age was 56 years, with no significant differences between groups. The scores of the questionnaire ranged from 2 to 35.1 points. The median score of OAB patients was significantly lower (17.6) than the median score of the controls (26.5; p = 0,004). The stress-incontinent women had a score of 21.95, which was lower than that of the controls but statistically non-significant (p = 0.051). In all subdomains, the OAB patients had lower scores than the stress-incontinent women and significantly lower values than the control group. Most striking was the impairment of “sexual interest in the last 4 weeks”. The figure for “none or almost no sexual activity” was 80% for the OAB group, 64.7% for the group of stress-incontinent women and 48% for the control group. Incontinence during intercourse was reported by one OAB patient and 4 stress-incontinent women but did not occur in the control group. Conclusions There is a high prevalence of SD in women with urinary incontinence. Patients with OAB reported a greater negative impact on sexual function and had significantly lower scores for the FSFI questionnaire than patients with stress incontinence or controls.

Abstract:

Objectives. To detect the anatomical insufficiency of the urethra and to propose perineal ultrasound as a useful, noninvasive tool for the evaluation of incontinence, we compared the anatomical length of the urethra with the urodynamic functional urethral length. We also compared the urethral length between continent and incontinent females.Methods. 149 female patients were enrolled and divided into four groups (stress, urge, or mixed incontinence; control). Sonographically measured urethral length (SUL) and urodynamic functional urethral length (FUL) were analyzed statistically. Standardized and internationally validated incontinence questionnaire ICIQ-SF results were compared between each patient group.Results. Perineal SUL was significantly longer in incontinent compared to continent patients (p<0.0001). Pairwise comparison of each incontinent type (stress, urge, or mixed incontinence) with the control group showed also a significant difference (p<0.05). FUL was significantly shorter in incontinent patients than in the control group (p=0.0112). But pairwise comparison showed only a significant difference for the stress incontinence group compared with the control group (p=0.0084) and not for the urge or mixed incontinent group. No clear correlation between SUL, FUL, and ICIQ-SF score was found.Conclusions. SUL measured by noninvasive perineal ultrasound is a suitable parameter in the assessment of female incontinence, since incontinent women show a significantly elongated urethra as a sign of tissue insufficiency, independent of the type of incontinence.

Abstract:

Urinary incontinence represents a serious social, medical and economic problem, which suffers a progressive increase, due to the increase in life expectancy that social, health and cultural advances have achieved. It is estimated that in the world there are approximately two hundred million people in urinary incontinence with a great economic impact of great importance that can exceed the coverage forecasts of the different systems of health care services. Our group from the Department of Physiology of the UCM has been studying the physiology of the lower urinary tract (LUT) for several years in order to determine the neurotransmitters and receptors that regulate these structures. This greater knowledge of the Physiology and Pathophysiology of the LUT has allowed these dysfunctions to be corrected with pharmacological methods compared to the traditional alternative of surgery.

Abstract:

Problems involving the urinary tract, particularly urinary incontinence, tend to become more common with age. Urinary incontinence is a prevalent problem in the elderly and its medical, social and economic costs are significant. Patients are often too embarrassed or unwilling to seek treatment, as it is often seen as an inevitable corollary of old age, as it is not considered a life-threatening ailment and also because they assume that it is untreatable. The physiotherapist can play a very important role in both the prevention and management of incontinence, but sadly, very few physiotherapists are prepared to take this challenge. The aim of this review is to provide information, with specific reference to the elderly, regarding the prevalence, risk factors and causes of incontinence. The history and examining of the incontinent patient are discussed and management of the different types of incontinence are mentioned.

Abstract:

Canine urinary incontinence is a common presentation in small animal practice. The care required by the owners at home should not be underestimated as a number of these dogs are presented by owners with a request for euthanasia. Many of the causes of incontinence are treatable, so the veterinarian and veterinary nurse should perform a thorough investigation in order to obtain a diagnosis and instigate appropriate therapy. This article outlines the initial approach to an incontinent dog and discusses the specific diagnostics and treatment options available and nursing care required.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION. Urinary incontinence in children is an interdisciplinary problem. The prevalence of urinary incontinence ranges from3.1% to 8.6% and decreases with age. Urinary incontinence can be caused by both organic (diseases of the genitourinary system,neurological pathology) and functional causes. One of the methods of non-drug correction of urinary incontinence is extracorporealmagnetic stimulation, used in adult patients. At the same time, the effectiveness of the method among the pediatric population hasnot been sufficiently studied. AIM. To study the effectiveness and safety of extracorporeal magnetic stimulation in the comprehensive rehabilitation of children withneurogenic urinary incontinence. MATERIAL AND METHODS. A prospective open randomized controlled clinical study included 75 pediatric patients (from 5 years to 16years and 6 months) with a clinical form of day and night urinary incontinence, who were divided by simple randomization into a maingroup (n=39), who received a standard rehabilitation and extracorporeal magnetic stimulation program for 21 days, and a comparisongroup (n=36), in which the standard rehabilitation program did not include the use of extracorporeal magnetic stimulation. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. A prospective open randomized comparative study revealed that the clinical effectiveness of theextracorporeal magnetic stimulation method in the comprehensive rehabilitation of children with neurogenic urinary incontinenceis 94.8%, which is 25.4% higher than in the comparison group. After treatment, patients in the main group had a noticeable decreasein urinary incontinence episodes, an increase in the micturition volume, and an improvement in the quality of life. Patients withvarious background neurological pathology responded to treatment, which indicates the common pathogenetic mechanisms of thedevelopment of lower urinary tract symptoms in these conditions and the independence of the final effect from the basic diagnosis. CONCLUSION. The use of the perineal extracorporeal magnetic stimulation method in children with neurogenic urinary incontinenceincreases the effectiveness of rehabilitation and is a promising and safe direction of rehabilitation treatment.

Abstract:

Background: Genitourinary fistula remains a major cause of morbidity worldwide.Approximately 2 million of women suffer from urinary leakage. Since the establishment ofGenito urinary Fistula center at Isra University Hospital –Hyderabad Sindh. We are able to shareour experience of fistulous women at the time of admission and at follow up visit. Objectives:To determine the different types of urinary incontinence in a woman after genitourinary fistularepair. Study Design: A Follow-up Descriptive study. Study Setting: This Study was done atFistula center Isra University Hospital Hyderabad GU – 11 from January 2011 to December2013. All the women who were admitted with true incontinence followed by Obstetrical andmajor gynecological surgeries were included. However women with stress incontinence andurge incontinence and women who are not willing to include in the study were excluded.Result: Out of one hundred and ten (110) women included in this study, 59 (53.6%) were foundto have obstetrical fistula, while 43 (39%) were suffering from Iatrogenic fistula. Continencestatus were explored at follow up visit. Out of 110 women, 108 (98.18%) & 96 (87.27 %) werehaving no signs of incontinence on examination at first visit and after six week and secondvisit after three month respectively. Only 7 % women fell into incontinence grade 2 at six weekfollow up and only one percent had persistent symptoms of stress incontinence at 3 monthrespectively. Women fall on incontinence grade 3, 4 and 5 were completely cured at 3 month.Conclusion: Success rate of genitor- urinary fistula repair is 98 %. Majority of women (96 %)on short term follow up at 6 weeks showed improved urinary symptoms. Moreover on follow upvisit at 3 months, these women reported improved quality of life and social reintegration afterfistula closure.

Abstract:

Purpose: To identify the risk factors of urinary incontinency for menopausal women.Methodology: A descriptive analytic study was conducted to identify the risk factor for urinary incontinencyand selected non-probability sample (purposive sample) from (200) menopausal women (45-65) who haveurinary incontinence as visitors and caregiver women who attend at Hila surgical teaching hospital during theperiod 1/11/2010-30/3/2011. Questionnaire format used for data collection was designed and constructedafter reviewing related literatures and previous studies and consists of the following variables: Demographicand reproductive characteristics of menopausal women who suffers from urinary incontinenceResults: The study found that the highest percentage was (33.5%, 32%) of study sample their age group (50-54,45-49) years, (74%) they are married and (43.5%) was illiterate. Women in this study had (19%) urgeincontinence, (16.5%) stress incontinence with (38%) having mixed incontinence while (10.5%) mildincontinence with 38.5% having sever incontinence. And the results show that there was statistical significantcorrelation coefficient between type of urinary incontinence and Age at marriage (years), Age at firstpregnancy (years) and parity. There was statistical significant correlation coefficient between degree of urinaryincontinence and age (years), age at marriage, age at first pregnancy (years) and body mass index. There wasstatistical significant correlation coefficient between duration of urinary incontinence with occupation andeconomical status age (years), parity, and number of abortion. The other risk factors include smoking, parity,types of deliveries, previous curettage, previous hysterectomy, Diabetic Mellitus, hypertension disorder,urinary tract infection, coughing, constipation, genital prolapsed and obstructed delivery.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: One of the more prevalent conditions associated with aging is urinary incontinence (UI), which may affect up to 55% of women and 34% of men older than 65 years. As a result of increasing longevity in developed nations, the proportion of UI-susceptible individuals continues to grow, presenting clinical and economic challenges to healthcare providers. OBJECTIVE: To assist the clinician in making informed decisions regarding UI, provide information on the wider ramifications of the disease, and provide a comprehensive overview of the condition. DATA SOURCES: MEDLINE (1966–December 1998) was searched for relevant publications using the following search terms: UI, UI in the elderly, treatment of UI, oxybutynin, flavoxate, vasopressin, quality of life in UI, and economic impact of UI. DATA SYNTHESIS: Key articles relating to the etiology, diagnosis, classification, economic burden, quality of life, and treatment of UI were retrieved, and this information formed the basis of the review. CONCLUSIONS: Although UI can be controlled relatively well with existing therapies, only about 50% of affected patients may actually seek care. There are a variety of therapeutic options available for the treatment of UI, although pharmacologic intervention is presently a relatively minor component of overall care; this suggests that effective drug therapy might play a more significant role in the future. The economic burden associated with the care of the incontinent patient is substantial, and in the US the direct medical cost of the disease was estimated at $25.5 billion in 1995. The disease also has a large impact on the individual UI patient, negatively affecting many parameters normally associated with a tolerable health-related quality of life.
