Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate a urinary incontinence self-management program for middle-aged women in Korean rural communities.
Methods: A one-group pretest and posttest design was used to examine changes in severity, knowledge, and attitudes following the intervention. Fifty-six women completed weekly 90-min group sessions for seven weeks. Descriptive statistics and paired t-tests were used to analyze data.
Results: The total of International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire scores was significantly decreased after the intervention (pre-test: 4.55±3.88, post-test: 3.21±3.00, p<.001). Significant improvement was also noted on the mean knowledge scores (pre-est: 16.66±6.24, post-test: 21.43±5.15, p<.001).
Conclusions: This study suggests that the UI self-management program is useful in improving the symptom of UI for middle-aged women living in communities.
