Objectives:to analyze the prevalence of urinary incontinence and its associated factors in hospital patients. Method:this is a cross-sectional epidemiological study whose data were collected using the instruments Sociodemographic and Clinical Data, Characteristics of Urinary Leakage and International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form. Prevalence was surveyed on a single day for four consecutive months. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, Student t-test, Mann-Whitney test and logistic regression (forward stepwise). Results:the final sample consisted of 319 hospital adults (57.1% female), mean age of 47.9 years (SD=21.1). The prevalence of urinary incontinence was 22.9% (28% in women and 16.1% in men) and the associated factors were: female sex (OR=3.89), age (OR=1.03), asthma (OR=3.66), use of laxatives (OR=3.26), use of diaper during the evaluation (OR=2.75), use of diaper at home (OR=10.29), and use of diaper at some point during the hospital stay (OR=6.74). Conclusion:the findings of this study differ from those found in the scarce existing literature on the subject in hospital patients. There is a need for previous studies such as this before proposing the implementation of preventive and therapeutic actions during the hospital stay.

“…Townsend et al found UI prevalence of 14% using a different questionnaire from the ICIQ-SF in Mexican postmenopausal women, 60% of them aged 50-59, older than those observed in the study, which included women in all menopausal stages. 30 In addition, the researchers found the following factors to be associated with UI: having four or more children aOR: 1.43 (95% CI: 1.04-1.96), using hormonal therapy aOR :1.26 (95% CI: 1.14-1.39), and being a current smoker aOR : 1.23 (95% CI: 1.09-1.39). However, statistically significant correlations for nutritional status, diabetes or arterial hypertension were not found.…”

“…Clinical records should include the amount and frequency of spontaneous urine leaked, nocturia, urge, and the impact of this complaints since all of them have a negative impact on quality of life and could involve the deterioration of state of mind, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, embarrassment, and social isolation. 1,10,23,30 This study is mainly limited by its cross-sectional design and by the lack of more objective measures such as urodynamics, Q-tip test or ultrasounds. The survey did not ask the participants if they had been previously diagnosed with UI, had felt embarrassment because of these manifestations, or if they had presented alterations of the pelvic floor.…”

Background: To assess the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) and to identify related factors in Afro-descendant Colombian women.Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out involving 40-59 year old women from the Colombian Caribbean. Socio-demographic characteristics were recorded and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short-Form (ICIQ-SF) and the 10-item cervantes scale were applied to identify UI and genitourinary symptoms, respectively.Results: A cross-sectional study was carried out involving 40-59-year-old women from the Colombian Caribbean. Socio-demographic characteristics were recorded and the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short-Form (ICIQ-SF) and the 10-item cervantes scale were applied to identify UI and genitourinary symptoms, respectively.Conclusions: The prevalence of UI among climacteric afro-descendant women was close to 4%. A history of PIH and PD consumption were related factors.

“…Findings in several studies demonstrate that there is an increased risk of SUI with increased parity [2,[8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]] and a recent meta-analysis found that having a parity of 2 or more increased the risk of UI, with each additional birth increasing the ORs for any UI by 12% and in addition, that the risk of SUI specifically, was increased after the first birth [16].…”

Background Pregnancy is the main risk factor for the development of Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) which is known to have detrimental effects on quality of life in approximately 54.3% of women. The recommended treatment for SUI is to increase pelvic floor muscle strength, however, it is not clear why long-term adherence to pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) is poor. Objectives To understand multiparous women's experience of incontinence and the prescription of pelvic floor muscle exercise (PFME) in the ante and post-natal period on their first pregnancy, and the differences, if any, that they experienced on subsequent pregnancies. Methods Purposive sampling was used to recruit women who had two or more children. The 1:1 semistructured interviews were recorded, transcribed verbatim and anonymised. Thematic analysis was undertaken by both researchers, independently, and the codes and themes were agreed by consensus. Results Women were not aware that PFME could prevent incontinence, and the education provided was not sufficient to enable adherence to a PFME program. PFME were prescribed by health professionals, but there was a lack of detail, and the importance of PFME was not emphasised on first or subsequent pregnancies. On subsequent pregnancies, women were more aware of PFME and incontinence, however, this education came from informal sources, not the health care professionals providing the ante or post-natal care. Conclusions Health care professionals should include more information, and better guidance regarding PFMEs. Most of the information about PFMEs came from informal sources, especially on the second and subsequent pregnancies.
