OBJECTIVES
To estimate the prevalence of low urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) and urinary incontinence among men and women aged 40 to 79 years.
METHODS
A postal survey was carried out in a community-dwelling random sample, in Auxerre, France. LUTS were assessed using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS). Urinary incontinence (UI) was assessed using a score based upon four questions.
RESULTS
1216 men and 591 women participated in the survey. 19.2% of men and 13.7% of women reported moderate to severe LUTS (IPSS > 7). 73% of men and 29% of women suffered from UI. Among men and women reporting severe symptoms of UI (0.4 and 5.4% respectively), one third had been prescribed medications for urinary disorders within the previous six months.
CONCLUSION
This survey confirms the high prevalence of LUTS and urinary incontinence among a community-dwelling sample of men and women, and highlights the need for management of these disorders.
