Abstract：
OBJECTIVE: To describe urinary incontinence prevalence for New Zealand women.
METHODS: The New Zealand Health Survey Adult Sexual and Reproductive Health module 2014/2015 was used to estimate urinary incontinence prevalence. Associations between urinary incontinence and age, body mass index (BMI), parity and ethnicity were estimated by logistic regression adjusted for sampling weights.
RESULTS: There were 2,472/5,685 (43.5%) of women aged between and 16 and 74 who responded to the urinary incontinence question and reported at least some incontinence. The sample survey weight-adjusted prevalence (95% confidence interval) was 41.7% (40.0-43.4). An increased prevalence of incontinence was seen with older age, increased BMI and greater parity. The association between BMI and parity was complex, with the lower prevalence with lower BMI attenuated with increasing parity. After adjustment for these variables there was no association with incontinence prevalence for Māori versus non-Māori or European versus non-European.
CONCLUSIONS: Urinary incontinence is highly prevalent in New Zealand women. There was no association with ethnicity after adjusting for older age, increased BMI and parity. The prevalence identified in the New Zealand Health Survey is higher than that reported in older surveys based on the electoral roll.

摘要：
目的：描述新西兰女性尿失禁的患病率。
方法：2014/2015年新西兰健康调查成人性健康和生殖健康模块用于评估尿失禁患病率。尿失禁和年龄之间的关联，体重指数（BMI），通过逻辑回归对样本权重进行调整来估计均等和种族.
结果：年龄在16至74岁之间的女性中有2,472/5,685（43.5％）对尿失禁问题有反应，并报告至少有一些尿失禁。抽样调查体重调整后的患病率（95％置信区间）为41.7％（40.0-43.4）。随着年龄的增长，尿失禁的患病率增加，增加的BMI和更大的平价。BMI和平价之间的关系很复杂，患病率较低，BMI较低，随着胎次增加而减弱。调整这些变量后，毛利人与非毛利人或欧洲人与非欧洲人的失禁患病率没有关联。
结论：尿失禁在新西兰女性中非常普遍。在调整了年龄后，与种族没有关联，增加BMI和平价。新西兰健康调查中确定的患病率高于根据选民名册进行的较早调查中报告的患病率。
