  • Title: Urinary incontinence in women: evaluation and management.
    Author: Culligan PJ, Heit M.
    Journal: Am Fam Physician; 2000 Dec 01; 62(11):2433-44, 2447, 2452. PubMed ID: 11130230.
    Abstract:
    Because the prevalence of urinary incontinence increases with age, a working knowledge of the diagnosis and treatment of the various types of urinary incontinence is fundamental to the care of women. As the population of the United States ages, primary care physicians can expect to see an increasing number of patients with urinary incontinence. By obtaining a careful medical history and performing a comprehensive physical examination, the primary care physician can initiate successful treatment for the majority of patients without the need for invasive testing. This article offers a comprehensive approach to the evaluation and management of urinary incontinence in women.
