ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the occurrence of urinary incontinency (UI) in pregnantwomen and its relationship with socio-demographic variables and quality of life.METHODS:
A descriptive cross-sectional multicenter study was conducted to investigate 495 women using the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire - Short Form (ICIQ-SF). The survey was conducted on the same day of delivery, with the volunteers still in the maternity ward. Statistical analysis of the comparison between groups 1 (incontinence) and 2 (continent) was done using chi-square test for comparison of proportions of women with and without urinary incontinency and logistic regression analysis.RESULTS:
From the total of 495 women studied, 352 (71%) reported having had UI during the last four weeks of pregnancy. Group 1 presented the ICIQ-SF median score of 11 (range 3- 21), considered as severe impact in quality of life. Logistic regression analysis showed that there was a closer relation between the self-report of UI with the following variables level of education below 8 years (OR 2.99; p < 0.001), black women (OR 2.32; p= 0.005), women with more than 3 children (OR 4.93; p < 0.001), obese (OR 4.22; p < 0.001) and normal vaginal delivery (OR 2.59; p < 0.001).CONCLUSION:
The majority of pregnantwomen have UI, negatively affecting the quality of their lives.RESUMO
OBJETIVO:
Investigar a ocorrência de incontinência urinária (IU) em mulheres grávidas, e a relação com variáveis sociodemográficas e a qualidade de vida.MÉTODOS:
Estudo multicêntrico do tipo descritivo, transversal, a fim de verificar por meio do International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire -Short Form (ICIQ-SF) a IU e m 495 mulheres. Os dados foram coletados no dia do parto, nas maternidades elegidas. A comparação das proporções entre os grupos 1 (incontinente) e 2 (continente) foi realizada pelo teste de qui-quadrado e a verificação das variáveis que mais se associavam com a IU por análise de regressão logística.RESULTADOS:
No total 71,11% (352) apresentaram IU durante as últimas quatro semanas de gestação. O grupo 1 apresentou escore do ICIQ-SF de 12,11 (min. = 3e máx. = 21), considerado severo impacto na qualidade de vida. Na análise multivariada de regressão logística encontramos maior relacão entre o relato de IU com as seguintes variáveis escolaridade abaixo de 8 anos (OR 2,99; p < 0,001), raça negra (OR 2,32; p= 0,005), mulheres com mais de 3 filhos (OR 4,93; p < 0,001), obesas (OR 4,22; p < 0,001) e parto normal (OR 2,59; p < 0,001).CONCLUSÃO:
A maioria das mulheres tinha IU, afetando sua qualidade de vida negativamente.
