- The study investigates the occurrence of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in physically active women, specifically during CrossFit exercises, and identifies which exercises are most linked to SUI.
- Out of 149 participants, 50 women from CrossFit reported experiencing SUI during workouts, with double-unders, jumping rope, and box jumps being the most common culprits, while no incidents were reported by women in an aerobic center.
- Factors like previous pregnancies increase the risk of SUI, and women have adopted strategies such as using dark clothing and performing Kegel exercises to mitigate it during workouts.
Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the use, costs, and impacts of dextrose instillation during cystoscopy, focusing on urinary tract infection (UTI) rates and complications.
- A total of 63 patients were analyzed, with 20 receiving dextrose and 43 not, leading to no significant difference in UTI rates (15% vs. 23%) or complications between the groups.
- Dextrose, costing $2.18 per ampule, proved to be a safe and effective option for enhancing bladder visualization without increasing the risk of UTIs.
