Patients suffering from urge incontinence can present with very strong desire to void even with small bladder volumes. The syndrome is subdivided into two categories: motor and sensory urge incontinence. In motor urge incontinence uninhibited detrusor contractions are found, and this condition is mostly associated with neurological disorders. In sensory urge incontinence no uninhibited detrusor contractions are present, and the condition may be secondary to pathological conditions in the urogenital tract. In some of the patients with primary sensory urge incontinence an unstable urethra may be found. The treatment of urge incontinence is mainly by medication, but bladder drill has also given good results.
患有急迫性尿失禁的患者即使膀胱容量很小也会有非常强烈的排尿欲望。该综合征可分为两类：运动性和感觉性急迫性尿失禁。在运动性急迫性尿失禁中，可发现逼尿肌无抑制性收缩，这种情况大多与神经系统疾病有关。在感觉性急迫性尿失禁中，不存在逼尿肌无抑制性收缩，这种情况可能继发于泌尿生殖道的病理状况。在一些原发性感觉性急迫性尿失禁患者中，可能会发现尿道不稳定。急迫性尿失禁的治疗主要通过药物，但膀胱训练也取得了良好效果。
