  • Title: Urinary incontinence in older adults.
    Author: Resnick NM.
    Journal: Hosp Pract (Off Ed); 1992 Oct 15; 27(10):139-42, 147, 150 passim. PubMed ID: 1400668.
    Abstract:
    A frequent and largely neglected problem, incontinence in the elderly can often be ameliorated or cured. Transient incontinence is usually secondary to intercurrent disease and thus should be addressed by treatment of that pathology. Established incontinence is most often due to detrusor hyperactivity. Behavioral intervention and bladder relaxants are management options.
