The urinary incontinence is a highly prevalent symptom in the adult female population. It has important psychosocial and economic connotations, and affects the quality of life of these patients. As it is an under-diagnosed problem due to patients not always consulting for it, it is very important to keep this in mind and to provide an opportunistic screening from Primary Health Care. It is difficult to determine the costs of this, but it is estimated to be the 2% of the health budget. Because of all of this, it is very important to know how to make a correct diagnose of this condition, to determine the different types of incontinence, possible causes, and treatments available. The purpose of this review is to show the different diagnostic and therapeutic tools available, to show the Primary Health Care role in this condition, and when to refer to specialist care.
尿失禁是成年女性群体中一种高度常见的症状。它具有重要的心理社会和经济意义，并影响这些患者的生活质量。由于患者并非总是因尿失禁前来咨询，这是一个诊断不足的问题，因此牢记这一点并在初级卫生保健中进行机会性筛查非常重要。很难确定其成本，但估计占卫生预算的2%。基于所有这些原因，了解如何正确诊断这种病症、确定不同类型的尿失禁、可能的病因以及可用的治疗方法非常重要。本综述的目的是展示可用的不同诊断和治疗工具，说明初级卫生保健在这种病症中的作用，以及何时转诊至专科护理。
