Abstract：
Urinary incontinence affects the physical, psychological, social and well-being of older adult women and requires adaptation. This study aimed to explain the inhibiting factors of adaptation to urinary incontinence in community-dwelling older adult women. A qualitative content analysis approach was adopted. Participants were 15 older women with urinary incontinence, three family members, and three healthcare team members. Data were collected by individual, in-depth semistructured interviews and analysed using the Graneheim and Lundman approach. The data analysis yielded the theme of neglecting urinary incontinence and the older adult, with four categories of \"s silence-inducing beliefs\", \"worthlessness for the family\", \"non-adaptation of urban spaces\", and \"deficiencies in the healthcare service structure\". Elucidating the inhibiting factors for older women\'s adaptation to urinary incontinence will lead to a change in the attitude of social policymakers and healthcare officials. This changes will then facilitate the establishment and adjustment of the necessary infrastructure to overcome these barriers.
摘要：
尿失禁影响身体，心理,老年成年妇女的社会和福祉，需要适应。这项研究旨在解释社区居住的老年成年女性适应尿失禁的抑制因素。采用了定性的内容分析方法。参与者是15名患有尿失禁的老年女性，三个家庭成员,和三名医疗团队成员。数据由个人收集，深入半结构化访谈，并使用Graneheim和Lundman方法进行分析。数据分析得出的主题是忽略尿失禁和老年人，有四类“沉默诱导信仰”，“对家庭来说毫无价值”，“城市空间的非适应性”，和“医疗保健服务结构的缺陷”。阐明老年妇女适应尿失禁的抑制因素将导致社会政策制定者和医疗官员态度的改变。这种变化将有助于建立和调整必要的基础设施，以克服这些障碍。
