Abstract

This cross-sectional study was planned to identify urinary incontinence symptoms and awareness level of women over 20 who had had birth experience, and attended to GMMA Gynecology Outpatient Clinics for any problems. The study was performed on 229 patients suitable for the study criteria and intended to attend the study between November 1, 2004 and March 31, 2005. The data were obtained by face to face interviews with the patients. The mean age of patients was 38.55±11.04, and urinary incontinence symptoms were determined in 37.11% of the patients. Among a total of 85 patients, stress type (40%), mixed type (%36.47), urge type (%15.29) and the other types (overflow, continuous urinary incontinence, etc) (%8.23) were the most common types of urinary incontinence. In conclusion 56.5% of the patients did not feel urinary incontinence as a health problem, 80.0% of them had never admitted to a health institution for urinary incontinence and 85.9% of them had never got any necessary treatment for urinary incontinence although they lived with the symptoms of urinary incontinence for 13 to 96 months (1 to 8 years).

Özet

Kesitsel tipte olan bu çalışmanın amacı, GATA Kadın Hastalıkları ve Doğum AD Jinekoloji Polikliniği'ne herhangi bir nedenle başvuran 20 yaş üstü, doğum yapmış kadınlarda üriner inkontinans bulgularını ve üriner inkontinansa yönelik farkındalık durumlarını belirlemektir. Çalışma, 1 Kasım 2004 ile 31 Mart 2005 tarihleri arasında, çalışma kriterlerine uyan ve çalışmayı kabul eden toplam 229 hastanın katılımıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, yüz yüze anket uygulanarak toplanmıştır. Hastaların yaş ortalaması 38.55±11.04 olup, %37.11'inin herhangi bir şekilde idrar kaçırdığı saptanmıştır. Üriner inkontinans bulguları bulunan toplam 85 hasta içerisinde en yüksek oranda sırasıyla stres tip (%40.00), miks tip (%36.47), sıkışma tip (%15.29) ve diğer tiplerde (taşma, sürekli üriner inkontinans gibi) (%8.23) üriner inkontinans bulgularının bulunduğu belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak; hastaların üriner inkontinans bulgularını yüksek oranda 13 ile 96 ay (1-8 yıl) arasında yaşamalarına rağmen %56.5'inin idrar kaçırmayı "sağlık problemi" olarak kabul etmediği, %80.0' inin idrar kaçırma nedeniyle herhangi bir sağlık kurumuna başvurmadığı ve %85.9' unun ise idrar kaçırma nedeniyle tedavi olmadığı saptanmıştır.
