“…Townsend et al in 2007, compared relationship of BMI and incidence of UI in middle aged women. 15 Compared to women with normal BMI, women of BMI ≥ 35 kg/m 2 had higher prevalence of all types of UI. Odds of having stress incontinence was 3.42 (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.48-4.72), for urge incontinence it was 6.10 (95% CI 3.11-11.98) and for mixed incontinence odds ratio was 5.60 (95% CI 3.17-9.88).…”

“…Previous gynecological operations, abdominal hysterectomy, surgical menopause [45][46][47] or urologic surgery [36,44] have all been linked as risk factors to UI. Obesity [43,47,48], increased body mass index (BMI) and weight gain [49] have also been identified as potential risk factors. Each 5-unit increase in BMI increases the risk of UI by 60% [50,51].…”

“…No existen estudios en Chile que demuestren la importancia de esta alteración en las usuarias de establecimientos de atención primaria. Igualmente, hay abundante evidencia internacional sobre factores de riesgo que se asocian al desarrollo o presencia de IU 3,5,15,16,17 , entre los que se encuentran la edad avanzada 3,5,6,16 , el aumento del índice de masa corporal 18,19,20,21 , la diabetes mellitus 22 , los embarazos y partos 23,24,25,26 , la historia de histerectomía 26,28,29,30 , y el inicio de la menopausia 26,27 . El presente estudio busca caracterizar la IU y los factores asociados a ésta en las mujeres que consultan en una unidad de la mujer en atención primaria, para determinar su peso relativo y así poder destinar recursos para su prevención y tratamiento.…”
