Abstract:
The prevalence of urinary incontinence increases as a person ages, as age-related changes make it more difficult to maintain continence. Long-term conditions and treatments prescribed to treat conditions, such as heart failure, can lead to an urgency to void the bladder. Frailty can make it difficult for an older person to respond this need. At end of life, mobility is often compromised and people can experience extreme fatigue. Caregivers can obtain support to manage an individual's incontinence during the day but often struggle alone at night. Caregivers can become exhausted and a situation

Abstract:
Adult incontinence violates social norms and values and undermines the personal expectation of being independent, dry and clean. Urinary incontinence is widely known to have a psychological impact on elderly people. This paper reports the findings of a study of the impact of incontinence on a convenience sample of older people in Hong Kong. Several of the results concur with those of studies in western countries. It was found that the prevalence of urinary incontinence increased with adult age, and that the condition affected women more than men. Over half of both men and women respondents had

Objective: No previous research has investigated whether there is an association between anxiety disorders and urinary incontinence. We hypothesized that anxiety disorders would be associated with increased urinary incontinence related disability. Method: Continuing participants who were aged 50 years and older in a longitudinal study of community-dwelling adults who were initially living in East Baltimore in 1981 ( n = 787). Participants were classified as incontinent if any uncontrolled urine loss within the 12 months prior to the interview was reported. Urinary incontinence related function

Abstract:
Abstract Urinary incontinence (UI), the involuntary loss of urine, is a common health condition that may decrease the quality of life and which increases in incidence and prevalence with age. Recent epidemiologic data suggest an overall prevalence of 38% in women older than 60 years, increasing to 77% in older women living in nursing homes. Despite this high prevalence, incontinence remains underdiagnosed and undertreated in this age group. In a representative population of 7,000 participants drawn from the Irish Longitudinal Study of Ageing, 750 had UI of whom 285 (38%) had not sought the hel

Abstract:
Abstract Background Urinary incontinence (UI) is one of the ‘giants’ of gerontological care, associated with early mortality, depression and falls in later life. It is often amenable to treatment, yet clinical experience suggests that older people with urinary incontinence often go undiagnosed and therefore untreated. The aim of this study therefore was to ascertain the prevalence of UI in a large population representative sample of Irish adults ≥50 years; to examine how often participants report UI to healthcare professionals; to profile factors associated with UI and its impact on quality of

Abstract:
Urinary incontinence is a common condition that affects both men and women, and with profoundly negative effects. Prevalence figures do show that it is more common in younger women than men, but as people age the difference decreases, with research identifying that one in three older men have continence issues. However, even with this increase, there is little direct best practice guidance on addressing male urinary incontinence compared to that for women. Professionals seem to be unaware that men have known existing barriers to accessing health care and this would be especially true of such a

Abstract:
Geriatric medicine is the subspecialty of internal medicine that focuses on the care of patients over the age of 65. As life expectancy increases and the baby boom generation reaches old age, there will be a significant increase in this population. As of 2000 there were 35 million people 65 and older. This number is expected to double to over 70 million by 2030. The 85+ population is projected to increase from 4.2 million in 2000 to 7.3 million in 2020. There will never be enough geriatric specialists to care for this group of patients, so all health care providers must be aware of the key principles of geriatrics. The effects of normal aging and disease-related changes common in older adults necessitate a unique approach to caring for this group. There are several geriatric syndromes encountered regularly in elderly adults. These include polypharmacy, dementia, delirium, late-life depression, urinary incontinence, and falls.

Abstract:
The care home sector has changed significantly in recent years: the vast majority of care homes are now in the independent sector, funding of care is complex, with greater reliance on self-funders to ensure profitability, and regulation has shifted to a more targeted model. In terms of the care home population, as most people are admitted at a late stage of their illness trajectory, many have comorbid conditions and multiple needs. Frailty is a dominant issue, often combined with dementia and other problems, e.g. sensory impairment and incontinence. The dimensions of a positive care home culture include a well-managed transition into the home, a commitment to person-centred care, and a well-trained and supported workforce. Over the last few years there has been a growing interest in care homes as major providers of care to some of the UK’s most vulnerable citizens; this includes welcome attention to research.

Abstract:
Physical and mental health problems in older people often co-exist, and may be inter-related. This chapter explores the use of the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA) to holistically address the impacts of multiple physical and psychiatric comorbidities on older peoples’ health and function. Older people with mental health problems are particularly vulnerable to frailty and the impacts of polypharmacy. They may present with atypical complaints, are prone to complications, and are at risk of quickly losing their functional abilities. A period of rehabilitation is often necessary to restore functioning after an episode of illness. Multidisciplinary working is essential to offer holistic management of problems commonly seen in older people, including immobility, falls, confusion and incontinence. A focus on person-centred care is particularly important for people living with dementia, and this chapter describes an approach to healthcare that promotes open communication with patients and carers, shared decision-making, and advance care planning.
