“…4 The prevalence of urgency UI in this study was 9.43%, similar to study conducted by Milsom etc in 2013 that found the prevalence of urgency UI in Indonesia was 8%. 12 The prevalence of stress UI and mixed UI in this study was 7.33% and 3.14%, respectively, similar to the prevalence of stress UI and mixed UI in Indonesia which is 5.1% and 1.6%, respectively. 5 Very few studies and data were available about urgency UI in Indonesia.…”

“…Additional costs included cost for laundry, panty liner/pad, and the cost for treatment due to comorbidity of UI like urinary tract infection. 12 Lack of awareness of UI patients in Indonesia caused comorbidity sufferred becomes more likely and bigger economic burden. Public health programs and clinical management of patients are needed to raise the awareness of UI patients and health workers.…”

Background: Urinary incontinene (UI) is the symptomof involuntary leakage of urine. Three types of urinary incontinence are stress UI, urge UI, and mixed UI. This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of urinary UI in women and to identify the most common type of UI. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted to 191 women age 20-59 in two villages in West Java, Indonesia. Subjects were visited door-to-door and interviewed using a standardized questionnaire for data collection. The study was conducted in February 2014. The variables of this study were age, parity, and the prevalence of urinary incontinence. The collected data were presented using frequency tabulation and percentage. Results: From 191 respondents, thirty eight subjects had UI. The prevalence of urinary incontinence was 19.90% which consisted of prevalence of stress UI (7.33%), urgency UI (9.43%), and mixed UI (3.14%). The prevalence of UI in 20-29 year age group was 3.23%, 30-39 year age group was 9.72%, 40-49 year age group was 27.69%, and 50-59 year age group was 52.17%. Prevalence of UI in nulliparous women was 5%, primiparous was 10.25%, multiparous with 2 childbirths was 23.61%, and multiparous with 3 childbirths or more was 26.67%. Conclusions: Prevalence of UI in women in community dwelling is 19.90%, which is higher than previous study from Indonesia and other Asian countries. Urgency UI is the most common type of UI. Prevalence of UI increases with age and parity.

“…UI limits autonomy, reduces self-esteem and significantly impairs the quality of life of 25% of the world's population [2,3]. Our results indicate a difference in the prevalence of UI between the sexes, despite their commonalities, such as sedentarism, and perceived lower social support, compared to the elderly incontinent.…”

“…UI limits autonomy, reduces self-esteem and significantly impairs the quality of life of those who suffer from it [2]. UI affects 25% of the world's population, and this percentage reaches 45% for the female population in some countries [3]. This problem is more frequent in the elderly, especially in women, but it is underestimated and poorly studied [4].…”

Objective: To define the prevalence of UI in the Spanish elderly population in both sexes, and to identify the possible relationships between physical activity habits, psychosocial variables, and the presence of UI. Placement: Spain.Participants: Data were collected from 7,878 people over 60 years of age (age range: 60-89 years). Of these, 57.6% were women and 42.4% were men. The mean age of the sample was 72.2 ± 8.1 years.Intervention: Personal interviews were conducted to a representative sample of the Spanish population. Study variables:The presence of UI, the daily physical activity and frequency, psychosocial variables (social class and social and family support), and body mass index.Results: 12.8% people reported having UI symptoms: with a prevalence of UI of 22.3% for females and 11.2% for males. The data showed the higher age, weight, Body Mass Index, and sedentary lifestyle of the UI patients compared to healthy participants. Conclusions:A strong relationship was found between elevated BMI, lower socio-familial support, sedentarism and the prevalence of UI. The social class not did not find relevant results.

“…Urgency is the main symptom of overactive bladder syndrome. The prevalence of overactive bladder syndrome ranges from 1.5% to 36.4% and increases in older patients (1) . For the patient, overactive bladder syndrome means an essential decrease of quality of life, an increase of social isolation and increased morbidity with a relevant risk of falls and fractures.…”

Introduction: Overactive bladder syndrome is defined as urgency with or without incontinence, often with frequency and nocturia but without infection or other pathology. For the patient, overactive bladder syndrome means an essential loss of quality of life. The therapeutic concept follows a graduated, stepwise scheme. The first step consists of behavioral treatment with bladder training and pelvic floor education as well as local estrogen therapy. Following inadequate response to these measures, it is often necessary to add anti-muscarinic drugs or beta-3 agonists. In case of medical contraindication or insufficient response to pharmacologic treatment, neuromodulation, i.e. percutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation, should be routinely offered to overactive bladder syndrome patients. Case Report: We present the case of an 81-year-old woman with long-lasting overactive bladder syndrome without incontinence. Behavioural treatment, local estrogen and anti-muscarinic therapy were unsatisfactory, therefore, an additional treatment employing percutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation was implemented. Under this regimen, the symptoms dramatically improved. Conclusion: The reported overall success rate of percutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation in the literature ranges from 33 -71%, with success being defined as more than a 50% decrease in urgency and a 25% reduction of frequency and nocturia, respectively. There is no other therapeutic option for overactive bladder syndrome patients, that reaches similar success rates. Percutaneous posterior tibial nerve stimulation should be routinely offered to overactive bladder syndrome patients and employed as an early step in the treatment of overactive bladder syndrome, sometimes in combination with or even before the introduction of medications.
