METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Shenzhen, China. Middle-aged and elderly women were asked to complete the Index of Autonomous Functioning scale (IAF), the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF), and the Urinary Incontinence Quality of Life (I-QOL) scale. Data were collected in January 2024 to March 2024. Descriptive statistics, univariate analysis, bivariate correlation and multivariate linear regression were used to analyze data.
RESULTS: A total of 646 women completed the questionnaire. The means and standard deviations (SD) of the IAF section were 45.40 ± 8.92, those of the ICIQ-UI SF section were 11.54 ± 3.67, and those of the I-QOL section were 43.95 ± 9.83. Multivariate linear regression models for the IAF revealed that questionnaire scores were independently associated with family\'s monthly income, education level, regular exercise, UI severity, and I-QOL score (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: The factors influencing the level of autonomy among middle-aged and elderly women with UI include family\'s monthly income, education level, regular exercise, UI severity, and I-QOL score. Higher levels of autonomy were observed among women with high family income, high education level, regular exercise habits, mild to moderate UI, and high quality of life.
方法:在深圳市某三级医院进行了一项横断面研究,中国。要求中老年妇女完成自主功能指数量表(IAF),失禁问题国际咨询问卷-尿失禁简表(ICIQ-UISF),和尿失禁生活质量(I-QOL)量表。数据收集时间为2024年1月至2024年3月。描述性统计,单变量分析,采用双变量相关和多元线性回归分析数据.
结果:共有646名妇女完成了问卷。IAF部分的平均值和标准偏差(SD)为45.40±8.92,ICIQ-UISF部分的平均值和标准偏差为11.54±3.67,I-QOL部分的平均值和标准偏差为43.95±9.83。IAF的多元线性回归模型显示,问卷得分与家庭月收入独立相关,教育水平,定期锻炼,UI严重性,和I-QOL评分(p<0.05)。
结论:影响UI中老年女性自主性水平的因素包括家庭月收入、教育水平,定期锻炼,UI严重性,和I-QOL得分。家庭收入高的妇女享有较高的自主权,教育水平高,有规律的锻炼习惯,轻度至中度UI,和高质量的生活。
