A prospective study was performed to evaluate the prevalence of suspected dysfunctional voiding (DV) and associated risk factors in children with asthma. The DV is defined as any voiding symptoms and/or urinary incontinence. Children (4-10-year-old) with asthma (n=178) and healthy subjects (n=197) were enrolled. DV and Incontinence Scoring System were administrated. Demographic features and asthma related characteristics were recorded. Suspected DV was noted in 19 (27.9%) of patients with asthma and 5 (6.6%) of healthy subjects in children younger than 6 years of age (p=0.001). In this patient group, asthma increased the risk of suspected DV (OR=5.7 (95% CI 1.988 to 16.344)). Children with asthma older than 6 years of age had similar prevalence of suspected DV but they had higher frequency of voiding and urgency. Asthma is associated with higher DV symptom scores in younger children who have already completed toilet training and with some of DV symptoms such as frequency and urgency in older children.
一项前瞻性研究评估了哮喘儿童中疑似排尿功能障碍(DV)及相关危险因素的患病率。DV 定义为任何排尿症状和/或尿失禁。纳入了年龄在 4-10 岁的哮喘儿童(n=178)和健康对照者(n=197)。进行了 DV 和尿失禁评分系统评估。记录了人口统计学特征和哮喘相关特征。在年龄小于 6 岁的儿童中,哮喘患儿中 19 例(27.9%)和健康对照组中 5 例(6.6%)存在疑似 DV(p=0.001)。在该患者组中,哮喘增加了疑似 DV 的风险(OR=5.7(95%CI 1.988 至 16.344))。年龄大于 6 岁的哮喘患儿疑似 DV 的患病率相似,但他们的排尿和尿急频率更高。哮喘与已完成如厕训练的较小年龄儿童的较高 DV 症状评分以及较大年龄儿童的某些 DV 症状(如频率和尿急)相关。
