Bladder Training: An Oasis in the Desert of Urinary Incontinence

This study investigates the efficacy of bladder training in older women with urinary incontinence, a common and often debilitating condition. The authors conducted a randomized clinical trial involving 123 women aged 55 years and older with urinary incontinence. Their findings suggest that bladder training significantly reduces the number of incontinent episodes, fluid loss, and voluntary micturitions. These effects were observed across different urodynamic categories, suggesting the potential benefits of bladder training as a non-invasive treatment for urinary incontinence.
