Treatment options alleviate female urge incontinence.
Urge incontinence affects a considerable percent of adult women, yet remains largely untreated. It is most often a chronic condition and can be debilitating when neglected. Advanced Practice Nurses need to be aware of incontinence in their patients, determine the underlying causes and individualize treatment to each patient. Several effective treatment options exist in managing urge incontinence, including behavioral therapy, pharmacologic therapy and surgical management. The clinician initiates and follows treatment regimens, and is ideally suited to provide patients with the education and motivation required for chronic therapy.
