Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the relationship between post-stroke urinary incontinence(UI)and 1 year stroke outcomes.Methods One hundred and thirty consecutive cerebral stroke survivors were classified into 2 groups according to their incontinence status at 1 to 10 d after onset.The patients'baseline characteristics,1 year mortality rate,abilities in the activities of daily living(ADL)and Modified Rankin Scale(mRS)scores were compared.Multivariate analysis was applied to highlight UI risk factors and correlations between UI and 1 year outcomes.Results Total anterior circulation syndrome(TACS)numbers and National Institutes of Health stroke assessment (NIHSS)scores in the UI group exceeded significantly those in the non-UI group,and both were significantly associated with initial UI.The 1 year mortality rate,patients'ADL dependence and mRS scores in the UI group exceeded those in the non-UI group significantly.Initial UI was also significantly associated with the 1 year outcome independently,as well as with age>75 years,Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project(OCSP)classification and initial NIHSS score.Conclusion UI is common in the patients with TACS and higher initial NIHSS scores.Initial UI predicts a poor 1 year outcome,SO treatment should be strengthened.
