“…19 Another study comparing a group of grand multipara with another group of non-grand multipara with a mean age of 66.1 years according to the types of UI reported that the interaction between vaginal delivery and age groups was significant for IUE and IUU types. 26 Regarding to history of hysterectomy, these results agree with another study carried out in the Brazilian northeast, 20 with a sample and a smaller age group than ours, and also with those from an international study that reported a higher proportion of urinary problems for women who underwent gynaecological surgery. 27 Functional disability due to stroke or other causes has not been verified in this study and this may be a possible limitation.…”

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.

“…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.…”

“…In a study conducted in Dammam, a city in the eastern province of Saudi Arabia, the stress UI was statistically significantly linked to grand multiparity, i.e., five and more births [ 49 ]. Another study found that parity significantly predicts stress and urgency UI [ 50 ]. A meta-analysis of studies on UI during the postpartum period found that multiparity is a significant factor in developing UI [ 51 ].…”

Urinary incontinence is a common problem among women of reproductive age. The objectives of this study were to measure the prevalence of urinary incontinence and the association with quality of life, psychological distress and self-esteem in Saudi women in the city of Riyadh. A questionnaire-based cross-sectional study was conducted in primary healthcare centers with Saudi women aged between 30 and 75 years. The questionnaire consisted of Urinary Distress Inventory, Incontinence Impact Questionnaire, Kessler Psychological Distress Scale, Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale, and the Female Sexual Function Index. Around 47.5% of women were suffering from urinary incontinence. The most common type of incontinence was stress (79%), followed by urge (72%) and mixed type (51%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that stress (5.83 (3.1, 11.1)), urge (3.41 (2.0, 5.8)), mixed (8.71 (3.4, 22.4)) incontinence and severe urinary distress (8.11 (5.2, 12.7)) were associated with impaired quality of life. Women suffering from stress and urge incontinence were twice (2.0 (1.3, 2.2)) as likely of reporting moderate/severe mental distress. Women suffering from urge incontinence (1.92 (1.4, 2.7)) and severe urinary distress (1.74 (1.1, 2.8)) were at a higher prevalence of reporting low self-esteem. Urinary incontinence affects the physical, psychological, social, and sexual health of women. Healthcare providers should be knowledgeable about the adverse consequences of UI on women’s personal and social life, and provide counseling and treatment accordingly.
