Abstract

Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is recognized as a common complication in women with CF. The primary objective of this study was to verify the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI) and its associations with quality of life (QoL) in adult women with CF. The secondary objective was to identify possible associations of UI with cough score, nutritional parameters, and pulmonary function. This cross-sectional study included female patients aged 18 years and older. All patients answered the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form, the Kings Health Questionnaire, and the Leicester Cough Questionnaire. Nutritional assessment was obtained. Sputum bacteriology and lung function were also performed. Fifty-two women were included, with mean age of 29.0±9.7 years and mean forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) of 50.1±21.7% of predicted. Thirty-two patients (61.5%) presented symptoms of UI, 23 (44.2%) of stress UI and 9 (17.3%) of mixed UI. However, there was no significant association between UI and pulmonary function, sputum bacteriology, and cough score (p>0.05). There was a significant association between UI and QoL variables (p<0.05). This study identified a prevalence of 61.5% of UI in women with CF. The presence of UI in women with CF resulted in a negative impact on QoL.

囊性纤维化妇女尿失禁与生活质量

应激性尿失禁(SUI)被认为是CF女性的常见并发症。本研究的主要目的是验证成年CF女性尿失禁(UI)的患病率及其与生活质量(QoL)的关系。次要目的是确定UI与咳嗽评分、营养参数和肺功能的可能关联。这项横断面研究包括18岁及以上的女性患者。所有患者均填写了国际失禁咨询问卷简表、国王健康问卷和莱斯特咳嗽问卷。进行营养评价。痰液细菌学检查和肺功能检查。纳入52名女性，平均年龄29.0±9.7岁，平均每秒用力呼气量(FEV1)为预测值的50.1±21.7%。出现尿失禁症状32例(61.5%)，应激性尿失禁23例(44.2%)，混合性尿失禁9例(17.3%)。然而，尿失速与肺功能、痰细菌学和咳嗽评分无显著相关性(p < 0.05)。UI与QoL变量之间存在显著相关性(p<0.05)。本研究发现，CF女性患者的尿失禁发生率为61.5%。CF女性患者的尿失禁会对生活质量产生负面影响。
