| description | Introduction: Urinary incontinence is a common disorder that often affects the elderly. The
prevalence of depression in people with urinary incontinence varies from 20-40%.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate and compare the prevalence of depression in
postmenopausal women with and without urinary incontinence.
Materials and Methods: This comparative study with cross-sectional design was, conducted
on 284 postmenopausal women in two groups of with and without urinary incontinence
(controls). After recording their demographic characteristics, they all completed the Beck
Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II). Chi-square, Mann-Whitney U test and logistic regression
were used to assess depression score and severity of depression.
Results: The mean age of participants was 57.62±9.62. The mean score of depression in
women with urinary incontinence was higher than in the control group (8.85±7.35 vs.
6.11±5.03), and this difference was significant (P=0.001). According to the Chi-square test, the
probability of depression in women with urinary incontinence was two-fold higher than that
of controls (21.3% vs. 9.86%). Using logistic regression and controlling the effects of socio
demographic variables, the odds of depression in women with urinary incontinence were 2.5
times higher than the control group (P=0.01).
Conclusion: Depression and urinary incontinence in postmenopausal women are seemed to
be related to each other. It is recommended that depression be screened in postmenopausal
women with urinary incontinence |
