Not Reported
Burgio, et al: JAGS 42: 208, 1994
Reasons for Not Reporting
Incontinence to Provider
Not
aware that can be treated
Normal part of aging
Personal problem (not medical)
Embarrassed
Fear of nursing home placement
Afraid treatment requires surgery
Include Incontinence
in the Review of Systems
for all geriatric patients.
Patient Case
 75
year old man
 Goes to the bathroom every 1-2 hours
daytime and 3 times at night.
 About once a week, on the way to the
bathroom, he can’t make it and wets
his clothes.
Evaluation?
Diagnosis?
Appropriate treatment?
Types of Incontinence
Urge
Stress
Functional Overflow
Work-up of Incontinence
History
Physical
Urinalysis
Post-void
Volume
Residual
Incontinence History
Type
 Do you leak urine during physical activity
such as coughing, sneezing, lifting, or
exercising?
 Do you get the urge to go and can’t make it
without leaking?
Onset
Severity
 Frequency of leakage
 Need for absorbent products
Incontinence History
Lower
urinary tract symptoms
Urgency,
frequency, nocturia, dysuria,
weak stream, straining to void, etc.
Fluid
intake – volume and type
Previous
treatments and effects on
incontinence
Medical History
 Medical,
neurological, history
 Surgical
history
 Prostatectomy
 Review
 Habits
medications including OTC
(caffeine, tobacco, alcohol use)
Physical Exam
Brief
Neurologic Exam
Gait
Lower
extremity strength
Cogwheel rigidity
Sphincter tone and voluntary
contraction
Rectal
(and Pelvic for
women)
Urinalysis
 Bacteriuria
 Pyuria
 Glycosuria
 Hematuria
Post-Void Residual Volume
 Measure
amount of
urine left in bladder
after voiding.
 Ultrasound
or
catheter
 Normal:
< 50 ml
Patient Case
75 year old man
 Frequent voiding and weekly urge incontinence
 Work up
 Hx: Diabetes for 10 years, tries to adhere to diet
– drinks about 4-5 diet sodas/day. Insomnia –
takes Tylenol PM. Constipation.
 Physical: hard stool in vault
 UA: 2+ glucose
(and Hgb A1C = 9.8 one month ago)
 PVR: 200 mL
 Diagnosis?
 Treatment Options?

Contributors to UI
to Treat First
Drugs

 Other
treatments
 Behavioral
training – try BEFORE or with drug
Least Invasive – Use First !!

Strategies

and Exercise
Behavioral
Approaches
Bladder Training
Biofeedback
Weight Loss
Bladder
Diaries
Behavioral Treatment:
Multi-component Program
Pelvic
floor muscle training
Home
practice of exercises
Increase
duration of contraction/relaxation
over time
Bladder
Control Techniques
Self-Monitoring
w/ bladder diaries
When the Urge Strikes –
Freeze and Squeeze
Stop
and stay still
Squeeze
Relax
pelvic floor muscles
rest of body
Concentrate
on suppressing urge
Wait
until the urge subsides
Walk
to bathroom at normal pace

Other Behavioral Strategies

Stress Strategy
Squeeze before you sneeze
(or cough or lift)


Post Void Dribbling Strategy

Squeeze after voiding
RCT Comparing
Behavior and Drug Therapy
197 older women with urge incontinence
 Randomized to 8 weeks of:
 Behavioral training (biofeedback)
 Drug therapy (oxybutynin)

Patient Case
 85
year old woman
 Frequently leaks on the way to the
bathroom
 Work up
 Hx:
Aricept for dementia
 Physical: Frail, walks slowly,
uses a walker
 UA: normal

Options?
The Patient with
Functional Limitations
Avoid
anticholinergic drugs in pts with
dementia
Facilitate functional status
Mobility devices
Physical therapy
Bedside commode
Urinal for men
Prompted voiding – VERY effective
Post-Prostatectomy
Incontinence
 65
yo had radical prostatectomy 1 year ago
 Leaks when he coughs, sneezes or lifts
something heavy
 Wears a pad in the daytime, dry at night
 No problem making it to the bathroom
 Diagnosis?
 Treatment Options?
Behavioral Treatment of PostProstatectomy Incontinence
20
men; 55-87 years old
Average 2 ½ years since surgery
8 weeks of biofeedback-assisted
behavioral
training
78.3% decrease in accidents
(range of -12 – 100%)

Case Series of 27 men with persistent
post-prostatectomy UI
Taught pelvic floor muscle exercises
without using biofeedback
56.6% reduction in leakage
