Abstract:
Objective:To explore the risk factors of overactive bladder(OAB)syndrome in older women with stress urinary incontinence(SUI).Methods:In this cross-sectional study, 157 elderly women with SUI, aged 60-88(65.6±5.4)years, were recruited from Qingshan District Maternal and Child Health Hospital and areas serviced by Fozuling Community Service Center in Wuhan between October to November 2020.Data collection included a questionnaire covering general information, dietary habits, childbirth history, medical history, the urogenital distress inventory(UDI-6)and the overactive bladder symptom score(OABSS), and physical examinations on curvature of the spine, pelvic floor muscle strength and pelvic floor ultrasound imaging.Results:A total of 157 elderly women with SUI were included in the study and the prevalence of OAB was 17.2%(27 cases). The prevalence of OAB was 17.6%(25 cases)among 142 patients with mild SUI and 13.3%(2 cases)among 15 patients with moderate or severe SUI, but SUI severity was not correlated with the prevalence of OAB( χ2=0.003, P>0.05). The UDI-6 score was 2.39±2.04 and the OABSS score was 3.70±2.48, with a positive correlation between OABSS and UDI-6( r=0.254, P<0.01), suggesting that OAB had a negative effect on the quality of life of patients with SUI.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis on factors with P<0.3 in the univariate analysis showed that number of pregnancies( P<0.01), anterior vaginal wall prolapse( P<0.05), and abnormal inclination of the pelvis( P=0.05)were associated with the prevalence of OAB.Regarding the number of pregnancies, the risk of OAB increased with 2-3 pregnancies( OR=1.46, 95% CI: 0.25-8.56)and with 3 pregnancies or more( OR=4.29, 95% CI: 0.79-23.18), compared with the prevalence at no more than 1 pregnancy.Compared with patients without anterior vaginal wall prolapse, Ⅰ-Ⅱ degree prolapse increased the risk of OAB( OR=4.21, 95% CI: 1.40-12.63), and third-degree prolapse further increased the risk( OR=11.48, 95% CI: 1.37-96.17). Compared with patients with normal inclination of the pelvis, anterior or posterior pelvis inclination promoted the occurrence of OAB( OR=3.46, 95% CI: 1.23-9.73; OR=2.62, 95% CI: 0.54-12.71). Conclusions:OAB has a negative impact on the quality of life of elderly women with SUI.Pregnancy, anterior vaginal prolapse and abnormal inclination of the pelvis promote the occurrence of OAB.
