The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) in a community sample from the city of São Paulo.
This epidemiological survey was conducted at a family health program in São Paulo, Brazil, using randomized sampling. Data were collected by interviewing residents and were analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficients, chi-square tests, and logistic regression analysis.
Seventy (10.7%) of the 657 subjects currently presented UI, including 50.7% with sporadic UI and 74.3% with UI upon moderate efforts. Ninety-three percent woke up during the night, 43.7% maintained continence until the bathroom, 63.4% had a sensation of wetness, and 77.5% reported no use of any continence aids. Female gender, advanced age, gynecologic or urologic surgery, dysuria, and urinary tract infection were correlated with UI (P < .001; r = 0.572).
The overall prevalence of UI was found to be high and was comparable to results from multiple countries.
本研究旨在分析圣保罗市社区样本中尿失禁（UI）的患病率。
这项流行病学调查在巴西圣保罗的一个家庭健康项目中进行，采用随机抽样。通过访谈居民收集数据，并采用Pearson相关系数、卡方检验和逻辑回归分析进行分析。
657名受试者中有70名（10.7%）目前存在尿失禁，其中50.7%为偶发性尿失禁，74.3%在适度用力时出现尿失禁。93%的人夜间醒来，43.7%的人能保持到浴室才失禁，63.4%的人有潮湿感，77.5%的人报告未使用任何失禁辅助器具。女性、高龄、妇科或泌尿外科手术、排尿困难和尿路感染与尿失禁相关（P <.001；r = 0.572）。
发现尿失禁的总体患病率较高，与多个国家的结果相当。
