The objective of this study was to determine the validity and reliability of a modified pad test to assess urinary incontinence. Urine leakage was simulated using normal saline that was dosed onto super-absorbent incontinence pads, and worn by healthy continent females over two sequential 12-hour time periods. The results indicate that the two x 12-hour pad test provides a reliable assessment of urine leak in female subjects.
