“…Although indicated as a significant independent risk factor for UI in postmenopausal women by several studies 8,16,18 obesity, evaluated here by BMI, did not present a statistically significant association with the occurrence of this condition, similar to the findings of bivariate analysis of a multicentre study. 16 Some studies have shown that both BMI and abdominal circumference may be an independent risk factor for incontinence in women. 21 The bivariate analysis showed an association between arterial hypertension and stress and mixed incontinence, while diabetes was associated only with urgency UI.…”

“…However, other researchers also found rates similar to those presented in this study. 5,9,10,16 The prevalence of UI in women varies widely across the world, with rates ranging from 11.5 17 to 62.5%. 16 These differences can be attributed to the different approaches used in diagnosing (self-report or clinical examination) and to sample size.…”

Research question Which person related and clinical aspects variables are associated with the types of urinary incontinence in older women? Research problem The purpose of this study is to determine the occurrence of urinary incontinence among elderly women and verify the association between related to the person and clinical variables with types of urinary incontinence. Literature review There is a wide variation in the prevalence of urinary incontinence throughout the world, as well as among the regions of Brazil (Milsom et al., 2014). The worldwide prevalence of any type of incontinence in women has been estimated at more than 275 million in 2013, with an increase of more than 300 million by 2018. Methodology A cross‐sectional study with a quantitative aproach was conducted with 120 elderly women. The International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire—Short Form was used as data collection tool and all participants signed consent form. Results The prevalence of UI found was 67.5%. Regarding the type of UI, the following frequencies were found: urgency (29.2%), stress (23.3%) and mixed (15.0%). Urge incontinence was significantly associated with age (mean: 81.1 years, P: .05) and abdominal circumference (mean: 97.9 cm, P: .01). Diabetes mellitus was associated with urgency incontinence (P < .001), while hypertension showed association with stress and mixed incontinence (both with P < .001). Conclusions Urinary incontinence was present in 67.5% of elderly women living in long‐term care facilities, with a higher occurrence of urgency and stress, and parametric statistics showed an association between Urge incontinence and age and abdominal circumference.

Bu çalışmada evde bakıma kayıtlı hastaların düşme ile ilişkili risk faktörlerini belirlemek, düşme sıklığını saptamak ve bu sonuçlar doğrultusunda toplum düzeyinde düşmenin önlenmesi stratejilerinin etkinliğini artırmak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Bu tanımlayıcı çalışma 01.01.2015-28.02.2015 tarihleri arasında yapıldı. 184 hasta Samsun Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Evde Bakım Birimince evlerinde ziyaret edildi. Aydınlatılmış onamı alınan hasta veya hasta yakınlarına sosyodemografik bilgilerini içeren anket formu ve İtaki Düşme Riski Ölçeği yüz yüze uygulandı. Veriler SPSS 20.00 programı ile değerlendirildi. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde Pearson ki kare ve Mann-Whitney U testi uygulandı. p<0,05 anlamlı kabul edildi. Bulgular: 184 hastanın yaş ortalaması 72,6±7,2 idi. % 55,5'i kadındı. Hastalarımızın % 49,7'si yatağa yarı bağımlı ya da bağımsızdı. Düşme riski değerlendirdiğimiz hastalarda en sık gördüğümüz tanı Alzheimer (% 30,3,n=56) idi. Düşme riski, 65 yaş üstünde olanlarda, kronik hastalık ve ilaç kullanım öyküsü olanlarda daha yüksek bulunmuştur (p<0,05) Evde bakım alanların % 55,5'i yüksek düşme riskli bulunmuştur. Evde bakım hizmeti alan 184 hastanın İtaki Düşme Riski Ölçeğine göre ortalama puanı 5,02±1,
