摘要
The prevalence of urinary and faecal incontinence was investigated in a sample of 1049 women aged 60 years and over in the municipality of Amstelveen, the Netherlands; 719 postal histories were completed. The overall prevalence of urinary incontinence was 23.5%. Daily urine loss was reported by 14.0% of all women. In women aged 60 to 84 years and 85 years and over 4.2% and 16.9% were faecally incontinent, respectively. In all age groups poor mobility and frequency were associated with urinary incontinence. Urgency was independently associated in women aged 60-85 years as was nocturia in women aged 85 years and over.
