Abstract
Background and Objectives: Urinary incontinence is one of the most common problems in aging that negatively affects the quality of life. This study aimed to investigate the effect of “Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization” (DNS) exercises on urine control and quality of life in elderly women with urinary incontinence.
Methods and Materials: This study was a semi-experimental study with a pre-test-post-test design with the control group. The 24 females, 60 years and over with urinary incontinence, were selected as statistical samples based on inclusion criteria and randomly divided into treatment groups (N= 12) and control groups (N= 12). Before and after 6 weeks of training which were performed for 45 minutes and 6 sessions per week, the quality of life of the subjects was assessed by the Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire (I-QOL) and the severity of urinary incontinence was assessed by International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) using repeated measures analysis of variance.
Results: The results showed that urinary incontinence and quality of life in the treatment group significantly improved compared to the pre-test (P <0.05). Also, there was a significant difference in all variables between the treatment and control groups in the post-test (P <0.05).
Conclusion: According to the results, by doing DNS exercises for 6 weeks, urinary incontinence and subsequently the quality of life of elderly women with urinary incontinence will improve. Therefore, these exercises are recommended to elderly women as a safe and secure intervention.
