✓ the urethral sphincter is weakened so that transient increases in intra-abdominal pressure
raise the bladder pressure to levels that exceed urethral resistance. Causes include
childbirth and surgery, postmenopausal atrophy of the mucosa, and urethral infection.
May follow prostate surgery in men.
urge incontinence
✓ detrusor contractions are stronger than normal and overcome the normal urethral
resistance. The bladder is typically small. Mechanisms: Decreased cortical inhibition of
detrusor contractions from stroke, brain tumor, dementia, and lesions of the spinal cord
above sacral level. Also hyperexcitability of sensory pathways ie: bladder infections,
tumors, and fecal impaction. Deconditioning of voiding reflexes ie: frequent voluntary
voiding at low bladder volumes.
overflow incontinence
✓ detrusor contractions are insufficient to overcome urethral resistance, causing urinary
retention. The bladder is typically flaccid and large, even after an effort to void.
Mechanisms: obstruction of the bladder outlet ie: BPH or tumor. Weakness of the detrusor
muscle associated with peripheral nerve disease at S2-4 level. Impaired bladder sensation
that interrupts the reflex arc ie: diabetic neuropathy.
functional incontinence
✓ the patient is functionally able to reach the toilet in time because of impaired health or
environmental conditions. Mechanism: problems in mobility resulting from weakness,
arthritis, poor vision, or other conditions. Also environmental factors such as an unfamiliar
setting, distant bathroom facilities, bed rails, or physical restraints.
Incontinence secondary to medications
✓ drugs may contribute to any type of incontinence listed. Ex: sedatives, tranquilizers,
anticholinergics, sympathetic blockers, and potent diuretics
