    Area of Science:

    • Gerontology
    • Urology
    • Orthopaedics

    Background:

    • Urinary incontinence is commonly perceived as an inevitable consequence of aging, particularly in women.
    • However, orthopaedic nurses frequently observe incontinence as a symptom linked to changes in musculoskeletal health.
    • This association necessitates a deeper understanding within the orthopaedic nursing field.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the various types of urinary incontinence.
    • To emphasize incontinence types directly related to orthopaedic conditions.
    • To equip nurses with the ability to differentiate incontinence types for effective intervention.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review focusing on urinary incontinence.
    • Emphasis on aetiologies relevant to orthopaedic patient populations.

    • Correlation between specific orthopaedic conditions and types of incontinence.
    • Distinguishing features aiding in differential diagnosis.

    Conclusions:

    • Urinary incontinence is not solely age-related and can stem from orthopaedic issues.
    • Accurate differentiation of incontinence types is crucial for targeted nursing interventions.
    • Enhanced knowledge empowers orthopaedic nurses to manage incontinence effectively in their patients.
