Historically, treatment strategies for urinary incontinence (UI) have not been offered by primary care practitioners. This is despite the fact that prevalence for UI in women of all ages has been reported to be as high as 30 percent and that there are interventions, specifically behavioral treatments, that can be integrated in a primary care practice. However, most practitioners have not been trained in identification of UI, causes and approaches that can be incorporated into a successful treatment program. The authors have implemented a program to address the problem of UI. This article outlines their successful application of a behavioral therapy protocol in two diverse practices: gynecological and internal medicine.
从历史上看，初级保健医生并未提供尿失禁（UI）的治疗策略。尽管据报道，各年龄段女性的尿失禁患病率高达30%，而且有一些干预措施，特别是行为治疗，可以纳入初级保健实践中。然而，大多数医生并未接受过尿失禁识别、病因及可纳入成功治疗方案的方法的培训。作者实施了一个项目来解决尿失禁问题。本文概述了他们在妇科和内科这两种不同的实践中成功应用行为治疗方案的情况。
