Official title:
Preventing Toileting Disability in Frail Older Women
Pilot study to determine the feasibility and possible treatment effect of a multi-component intervention combining non-drug treatments for urinary incontinence and physical activity to improve urinary incontinence, toileting skills, physical function, and quality of life in frail older women without dementia living in senior housing facilities.
This was a single blinded, two-arm pilot randomized controlled trial designed to test the feasibility and potential treatment effects of a multi-component intervention that combined behavioral urinary incontinence treatments with physical activity to improve urinary incontinence, toileting skills, quality of life, and physical function in frail older women without dementia living in senior apartment buildings.The intervention included a 12-week program of tailored behavioral UI treatments delivered by a nurse practitioner during 4 home visits, 150 minutes of weekly walking, and twice weekly strength training classes. ;
