Urinary incontinence – from childhood onwards

Dragana Živković (Author), Damir Franić (Author), Vladimir Kojović (Author)

Abstract

Urinary incontinence (UI) is a condition that affects patients of all ages, starting with childhood. There are two peaks in its incidence, i.e., in childhood and another one in patients over 40 years of age, which increases continuously with patient age. It is a condition recognized by the World Health Organization as a set of diseases (International Classification of Diseases, ICD-10), and the International Classification of Functionality recognizes the associated extreme disablement. UI is a major health problem affecting the lives of an estimated 400 million persons worldwide. The global aging of the population will cause rise in the incidence of UI in the future. It is expected that UI itself will become a serious health and social burden for both patients and health service providers. UI can be an isolated problem, or it can be associated and/or aggravated by any associated disorder affecting the nervous system such as myelomeningoceles, Parkinson’s disease or stroke. UI often affects the patient daily life, and it can have repercussions on their physical, financial, social, and emotional well-being. At last, it has a negative influence on their sexual health.

Secondary title:	Inkontinencija mokraće – od djetinjstva do starosti
Secondary abstract:	Inkontinencija mokraće (IM) je stanje koje pogađa osobe svih dobnih skupina počevši od djetinjstva. Postoje dva vrhunca incidencije i to u djetinjstvu, a drugi u bolesnika starijih od 40 godina, koji se stalno povećava s dobi bolesnika. To je stanje koje Svjetska zdravstvena organizacija prepoznaje kao skup bolesti (Međunarodna klasifikacija bolesti, MKB-10), a Međunarodna klasifikacija funkcionalnosti prepoznaje pridruženu ekstremnu onesposobljenost. IM glavni je zdravstveni problem koji utječe na živote oko 400 milijuna ljudi širom svijeta. Globalno starenje stanovništva uzrokovat će porast učestalosti IM u budućnosti. Očekuje se da će i sama IM postati ozbiljno zdravstveno i socijalno opterećenje za bolesnike i pružatelje zdravstvenih usluga. IM može biti izolirani problem ili može biti povezana s i/ili pogoršana bilo kojim povezanim poremećajem koji pogađa živčani sustav, kao što su mijelomeningocele, Parkinsonova bolest, moždani udar itd. IM često utječe na svakodnevni život bolesnika i može imati posljedice na njihovo fizičko, financijsko, socijalno i emocionalno stanje. Napokon ima negativan utjecaj na njihovo seksualno zdravlje.
