BACKGROUND
Poststroke urinary incontinence is a common problem, with a prevalence ranging from 32% to 79%. Urinary incontinence after stroke has negative physiological, psychological, and economic effects, which lead to lifestyle changes for both patients and caregivers. Nurses play an important
OBJECTIVE
To explore nurses' practices and influences in relation to urinary incontinence following stroke, in the UK, Sweden and China.
BACKGROUND
Urinary incontinence following stroke is common, under-recognised and poorly researched. Before appropriate rehabilitation interventions can be
OBJECTIVE
To compare the prevalence of self-reported incontinence among noninstitutionalized long-term stroke survivors with population controls without stroke and to identify risk factors associated with urinary incontinence in the stroke survivors.
METHODS
Community-based, cross-sectional
In a retrospective study, based upon doctors' and nurses' case records, urinary incontinence (UI) and its relation to the severity of strokes was studied in 156 stroke patients discharged from the department of neurology, Bispebjerg Hospital in 1988. A significant relationship was found between the
OBJECTIVE
To identify potentially treatable clinical risk factors responsible for poor outcome in acute stroke patients with urinary incontinence.
METHODS
All acute stroke patients admitted to our hospital within a 12-month period were considered for inclusion in this observational prospective
OBJECTIVE
To provide a comprehensive review of the current evidence on post-stroke urinary incontinence.
METHODS
An electronic database search was performed to identify relevant studies and review articles related to Urinary Incontinence (UI) in the stroke population between the years 1966 and
BACKGROUND
urinary incontinence (UI) after stroke is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The UK National Sentinel Audits of Stroke have collected data on UI which has not previously been reported.
METHODS
data on standards relating to both organisations and process of care were
This retrospective study aims to assess the relationship of age, gender, lesion location, stroke etiology and recurrence of stroke to post-stroke urinary incontinence, and to evaluate its impact on functional recovery in patient subgroups with different etiologies, lesion locations and ages.
BACKGROUND
Acute-stroke prognostic indicators remain controversial including relationship of urinary incontinence with outcomes in cognition, transfers, and discharge destination.
OBJECTIVE
To examine if urinary incontinence is associated with inpatient-rehabilitation (IR) outcomes in cognition,
OBJECTIVE
To explore the views and experiences of stroke survivors and carers about a systematic voiding programme for poststroke incontinence.
BACKGROUND
Urinary incontinence after stroke is common and associated with poorer functional outcome. Structured assessment and management are potentially
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the frequency, the prognostic effect on functional status and the urodynamic patterns of post-stroke urinary incontinence (UI) in a sample of in-patients affected by ischemic stroke.
METHODS
One hundred six patients with recent ischemic stroke admitted to a
Lesions of the medial frontal micturition center can result in the activation of the pontine and spinal micturition centers when the bladder is full, causing urinary incontinence. Recognition of acute bladder incontinence as part of a cortical hemispheric stroke syndrome may reduce the likelihood of
OBJECTIVE
To explore the relationship between indwelling urinary catheters (IUCs), urinary incontinence (UI), and death in the poststroke period and to determine when, after the neurological event, UI has the best ability to predict 1-year mortality.
METHODS
In a prospective observational study,
OBJECTIVE
To compare the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) measured by Barthel Index and the Danish Prostate Symptom Score (DAN-PSS-1) questionnaire in stroke patients.
METHODS
A cross-sectional, hospital based survey was initiated whereby 407 stroke patients, average age 67 (SD 12) years with
OBJECTIVE
Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common and distressing problem after stroke. Although there is evidence of new, effective UI poststroke rehabilitation intervention, it is unknown whether occupational therapists (OTs)' and physical therapists (PTs)' actual practices reflect best practices.
