Associated factors of stress, urgency, and mixed urinary incontinence in a geriatric outpatient assessment of older women with hip fracture.

Purpose: Urinary incontinence (UI) is known to be common among older female hip fracture patients. Little is known about different subtypes of UI among these patients. Our aim was to identify factors associated with subtypes of UI in a cross-sectional design.

Do urinary and double incontinence predict changes in living arrangements and mobility in older women after hip fracture? - a 1-year prospective cohort study.

Background: Continence problems are known to be associated with disability in older adults. Costs of disability and resulting need for more supported living arrangements are high after a hip fracture. The aim was to examine pre-fracture urinary incontinence (UI) and double incontinence (DI, concurrent UI and fecal incontinence) as predictors of changes in mobility and living arrangements in older female hip fracture patients in a 1-year follow-up.

Urinary and double incontinence in older women with hip fracture - risk of death and predictors of incident symptoms among survivors in a 1-year prospective cohort study.

Objectives: To investigate the association of urinary incontinence (UI) and double incontinence (DI, concurrent UI and fecal incontinence) with one-year mortality among older female hip fracture patients and to identify predictors of incident UI and DI.

Design: A prospective cohort study SETTING AND SUBJECTS: 1,468 female patients aged ≥ 65 treated for their first hip fracture during the period 2007-2019 METHODS: Continence status was elicited at baseline and one-year post-fracture. Age- and multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazards and multinomial logistic regression models were used to determine the associations of incontinence with one-year mortality and to examine the associations of baseline predictors with incident UI and DI respectively.

Factors associated with urinary and double incontinence in a geriatric post-hip fracture assessment in older women.

Background: Incontinence and hip fractures are common in older people, especially women, and associated with multiple adverse effects. Incontinence is a risk factor for falls.

Aims: We aimed to investigate the prevalence of urinary (UI) and double incontinence (DI, concurrent UI and faecal incontinence), and to identify factors associated with UI and DI 6 months post-fracture.
