It is estimated that approximately 50% of residents in long-term care settings suffer from urinary incontinence. Developing and implementing a continence program in long-term care settings is one of the most challenging aspects of continence care. Careful assessment of residents will allow interventions to be targeted to those most likely to benefit. The combination of nursing measures and targeting the behavioral interventions to those most likely to benefit increases the likelihood that the program will produce clinically significant reductions in UI.
据估计，长期护理机构中约50%的居民患有尿失禁。在长期护理机构中制定和实施一项控尿计划是控尿护理中最具挑战性的方面之一。对居民进行仔细评估将使干预措施能够针对最有可能受益的人群。护理措施与针对最有可能受益人群的行为干预相结合，增加了该计划在临床上显著减少尿失禁的可能性。
