Urinary incontinence is defined as "Involuntary loss of urine, such as leaking of urine. It is a symptom of various underlying pathological processes."[1]
Classification
Urge incontinence
Stress incontinence
Etiology/Cause
Incontinence is more common after a hysterectomy.[2]
Diagnosis
A systematic review by the Rational Clinical Examination has reviewed hot to diagnose the types of incontinence and concluded that the "most helpful component for diagnosing urge urinary incontinence is a history of urine loss associated with urgency. A bladder stress test may be helpful for diagnosing stress urinary incontinence."[3] The bladder stress test is "performed while the woman is supine or standing, involves observation for urine loss immediately on coughing or with a Valsalva maneuver".[3]
Treatment
Prompted voiding
Prompted voiding helps according to a systematic review.[4]
Exercises
Kegel exercises to strengthen or retrain pelvic floor muscles and sphincter muscles can reduce stress leakage.[5] Patients younger than 60 years old benefit the most.[5] The patient should do at least 24 daily contractions for at least 6 weeks.[5] A systematic review concluded "pelvic floor muscle training would resolve 490 cases of stress urinary incontinence."[6]
Weight loss
Weight loss was helpful in a randomized controlled trial.[7]
Medications
Urge incontinence
For urge incontinence (detrusor instability) anticholinergic drugs such as oxybutynin and tolterodine are effective according to a systematic review.[8]A randomized controlled trial found that trospium is effective.[9]
Stress incontinence
For stress incontinence, phenylpropanolamine 50 mg twice daily by mouth can help.[10][11][12]
Topical estrogen can help[13] and can be combined with phenylpropanolamine[12].
Surgery
Among surgical options, a randomized controlled trial found greater benefit, but more complications from Fascial sling surgery as compared to Burch colposuspension.[14]
