Validity of a self-administered questionnaire, with reference to a clinical stress urinary incontinence test

Abstract

These findings suggest that there is a greater probability of finding severe UI if the women have experienced it in more than drops and it has lasted for > 4 weeks and it is therefore necessary to estimate the degree of incontinence further by means of a stress UI test. In contrast, women who experienced UI in less than drops and for a duration of < 4 weeks only suffered from a very mild degree of UI.
