“…Several medical disorders, such as cardiac diseases, depression, diabetes, and hypertension were found to be significantly associated with urinary incontinence [4,15,[31][32][33]. However, we did not observe any such association between these medical disorders and UI.…”

Objective: To determine the risk factors for urinary incontinence (UI) amongst the patients attending the Urogynecology clinic in Salmaniya medical Complex. Design: Cross sectional study. Setting: Salmaniya Medical Complex -Urogynecology clinic. Population: A total of 259 women complaining of stress and mixed urinary incontinence were recruited between January 2005 and December 2011. Women with over active bladder syndrome, pure neurogenic bladder and overflow incontinence were excluded. Methods: Data collected from the recording forms which were used regularly in the urogynecology clinic. Results:The risk of urinary incontinence increased significantly with age. Women aged 30-60 years were approximately 3-6 times more likely to develop urinary incontinence than women less than 30years. The risk of UI was increased by obesity (OR 2.5, 95%CI (1.6-4.1), vaginal delivery (OR 6.73, 95%CI 1.2-36.8), parity (Para 3-5) (OR 5.09, 95%CI 5.6-9.8), postmenopausal status (OR 5.57, 95%CI 3.2 -9.8) and chronic pulmonary diseases (OR 4.00, 95%CI 1.1 -14.2). Conclusions: The significant risk factors for UI as seen in our study population were age, body mass index, parity, vaginal delivery, menopause and chronic pulmonary diseases. Studies have shown that urinary incontinence affects women of all ages but it rises with advanced age. The prevalence of UI is estimated to range from 16% to 46% amongst middle-aged women and rise to 50% in older women [2][3][4]. Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is the most prevalent type of urinary incontinence affecting nearly 30 -50 % of women [3,[5][6][7]. Urinary incontince is an embarrassing condition with a major impact on a quality of life [7][8][9]. Risk Factors of Urinary Incontinence in BahrainSeveral studies had focused on risk factors of urinary incontince and these are important in counseling patients appropriately [2][3][4]10]. We decided to study the risk factors of urinary incontinence in Bahraini women as there are no published studies which addressed this issue in our society.The aim of this study was to find out the risk factors of urinary incontinence amongst the patients who presented to the Urogynecology clinic at Salmaniya Medical Complex with urinary incontinence from 1st of January 2005 till 31 st December 2011. Materials and MethodThis study was conducted in the Urogynecology clinic at Salmaniya Medical Complex (SMC)

Artigo extraído da dissertação de mestrado apresentada ao Curso de Pós-Graduação em Enfermagem da Faculdade de Ciências Médicas da UNICAMP RESUMOTrata-se de um estudo para avaliar a prevalência da incontinência urinária (IU) e fatores associados entre mulheres profissionais de enfermagem de um hospital-escola. INTRODUÇÃONa população feminina, a experiência com episódios de perda urinária é uma condição que ocorre não somente entre mulheres idosas, mas também entre mulheres jovens e na meia-idade. Os problemas urinários não são conseqüências naturais da idade e nem é um problema exclusivo do envelhecimento (1) .A incontinência urinária (IU) foi definida pela Sociedade Internacional de Continência (International Continence Society -ICS) como "perda involuntária de urina que é um problema social ou higiênico" (2) . A definição como um problema social ou higiênico tem sido consistente em vários estudos realizados, no entanto, pode ou não se tornar um problema higiênico ou social, porque nem todas as mulheres consideram que a IU interfere nas atividades diárias (3) .A mulher incontinente reporta uma pior qualidade de vida comparada com a mulher continente (2)(3)(4) e estudos demonstram que a depressão e a doença do pânico são altamente prevalentes em mulheres com IU (5) .Alguns fatores influenciam os índices de prevalência da IU na mulher, fazendo com que os resultados não tenham a mesma consistência nos diversos estudos. Estes índices variam de acordo com a metodologia adotada para o estudo, como: características da população (faixa etária, atividade

“…19 Yip and Cardozo 20 reported that there is a probability of psychological morbidity due to the impact of UI on quality of life. For Melville et al 21 and Vigod and Stewart, 22 major depression and comorbidity significantly affect the quality of life in women with UI. Stach-Lempinen et al 19 found that women with UI showed decreased quality of life and reported more symptoms of depression.…”

Conflict of interest: noneThe aim of this study is to examine the relationship among psychological, clinical and sociodemographic variables, and quality of life in women with urinary incontinence. The sample consisted of 80 women diagnosed with urinary incontinence (UI) followed in a Northern Central Hospital in Portugal. Participants answered the Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL); Satisfaction with Sexual Relationship Questionnaire (SSRQ); Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scales (HADS) and the Brief Cope. The results revealed that women with higher quality of life considered their symptoms of urine loss as mild or moderated compared to those with severe urine loss. The less severe urine loss was associated with greater sexual satisfaction and less use of religion and self-blame as coping strategies. In terms of coping, women who considered the loss of urine as severe expressed more feelings regarding UI. Stress urinary incontinence, high sexual satisfaction, and less use of denial, distraction, and religion as coping strategies, predicted higher quality of life. According to the results, UI has an impact on women's sexual satisfaction and quality of life. Therefore, intervention programs should target these women, including their partners, helping them to adjust to their condition and teaching effective coping strategies in order to improve their sexual satisfaction and quality of life.
