Abstract

Introduction: Urinary incontinence, which affects women of all age groups, is a crucial health problem, affecting the quality of the life and incidence of it increases especially with aging. Materials and Method: This study was designed as a cross-sectional research to determine to what extent the quality of life of women with urinary incontinence was affected and which factors were involved. The study included women aged 65 years and over who were admitted to a urology outpatient clinic at a provincial hospital with a complaint of urinary incontinence between December 1, 2016 and May 31, 2017. The study data such as demographic characteristics, reproductive features, and complaints related to urinary incontinence were collected using a questionnaire and the Incontinence Quality of Life Scale. Descriptive statistics and Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney U tests were used in data analysis. Results: Incontinence Quality of Life Scale scores significantly decreased in association with age, smoking status, episiotomy status, and increased body mass index; therefore, quality of life was negatively affected in these women (p0.05). Conclusion: Urinary incontinence negatively affects the quality of life of elderly women.

Özet

Giriş: Üriner inkontinans her yaş grubundaki kadınları etkilemekle birlikte özellikle yaşlanma ile birlikte sıklığı artan ve yaşam kalitesini etkileyen, önemli bir sağlık problemidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Üriner inkontinans yaşayan kadınların yaşam kalitelerinin hangi düzeyde etkilendiğini ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla yapılan çalışma kesitsel türdedir. Bir ildeki bir hastanenin üroloji polikliniklerine 1 Aralık 2016- 31 Mayıs 2017 tarihleri arasında üriner inkontinans şikayeti ile başvuran 65 yaş ve üzeri kadınlar örneklemi oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın verileri, kadınların sosyo-demografik özellikleri, doğurganlık özellikleri ve üriner inkontinans ile ilişkili yakınmalarını saptamaya yönelik anket formu ve "İnkontinans Yaşam Kalitesi Ölçeği" ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı analiz yöntemleri, Kruskal Wallis, ve Mann Whitney U testi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Kadınlarda yaş, sigara içme, epizyotomi uygulanma durumu, inkontinans miktarı ve beden kitle indeksindeki artışla birlikte inkontinans yaşam kalitesi ölçeği puanlarının anlamlı düzeyde düştüğü ve dolayısı ile yaşam kalitelerinin negatif yönde etkilendiği belirlenmiştir (p0.05). Sonuç: Üriner inkontinans yaşlı kadınların yaşam kalitesini olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir.
