“…All the symptomatic patient had irritative symptoms and 25% of them also had obstructive symptoms. The prevalence of symptomatic patients in past studies varied from 27% to 75% 3,10,12 . This variation probably occurs due to the bias selection in urological clinics 11,13 or inclusion of other kinds of parkinsonism 3 .…”

“…This variation probably occurs due to the bias selection in urological clinics 11,13 or inclusion of other kinds of parkinsonism 3 . Lemack et al related that patients with PD would have more contact with physicians, which could influence the questionnaire answers 10 . As the control group was made up of spouses, family and caretakers they had the same health information and the same access to health care.…”

-----The authors present a cross-sectional study involving 61 patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) who were consecutively examined and compared to a control group with 74 subjects. Only patients who fulfilled the standard diagnostic criteria for PD and whose brain magnetic resonance imaging was normal were included. The objective of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of inferior urinary tract symptoms in PD and to study the possible association between clinical factors to urinary dysfunction. ln the patient group, 39.3% presented urinary symptoms when compared to 10.8% in the control group. All symptomatic patients presented irritative symptoms. The most common irritative symptom PD was nocturia, followed by frequency and urinary incontinence. Around 25% of the patients presented functional obstructive symptoms determined by the disease. The most frequent obstructive symptom was incomplete emptying of the bladder. Only the age of the patients and control group were correlated with urinary dysfunction.KEY WORDS: Parkinson's disease, urinary symptoms, autonomic symptoms.Prevalência e fatores associados aos sintomas urinários na doença de P Prevalência e fatores associados aos sintomas urinários na doença de P Prevalência e fatores associados aos sintomas urinários na doença de P Prevalência e fatores associados aos sintomas urinários na doença de P Prevalência e fatores associados aos sintomas urinários na doença

“…In a study of urodynamic assessments in people with PD with neurogenic and non-neurogenic voiding dysfunction, Defreitas et al 52 reported an increased rate of urinary incontinence in people with PD compared to people with non-neurogenic detrusor overactivity. Neurogenic dysfunction causes symptoms of urinary dysfunction such as frequency of micturition, urgency, urinary incontinence, and incomplete emptying of the bladder 53 . The incidence of obstructive urinary symptoms increases with PD severity 54 resulting in greater demand and burden for caregivers.…”

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a complex, slowly progressive, neurodegenerative, neurological condition characterised by a wide range of motor problems such as movement disorders, issues with gait and balance, and difficulty with swallowing and speech. In addition, sufferers also experience non-motor symptoms such as disorder of sleep, postural hypotension, mood alterations, lethargy, and cognitive dysfunction. As PD progresses to an advanced stage, people experience periods of debilitating physical and neurological problems and their caregivers face increasing complexity of care. Many people with PD require the support of a caregiver to attend to activities of daily living. This paper will review the literature on the effects of Parkinson's disease on both the patient and caregiver. Findings highlight the progressive nature of the disease affecting both functional and affective domains, and the need for caregiver support to enable the delivery of quality of care to this group throughout the disease trajectory.

“…and frequency (16%-36%) (Araki & Kuno, 2000a;Campos Sousa et al, 2003), and urge urinary incontinence, particularly if poor mobility complicates their bladder disorder (Araki & Kuno 2000a;Campos Sousa et al, 2003;Lemack et al, 2000). Men with PD often have a coexisting benign prostatic hyperplasia worsening detrusor overactivity.…”
