The role of biofeedback in Kegel exercise training for stress urinary incontinence.
TLDR
The biofeedback group improved the strength and selective control of pelvic floor muscles; the verbal feedback group did not; both groups significantly reduced the frequency of incontinence.
A staff management system for maintaining improvements in continence with elderly nursing home residents.
TLDR
A staff management system for maintaining treatment gains achieved on a specialized continence unit located in a geriatric nursing home was effective in maintaining prompted voiding activities with corresponding maintenance of improved patient continence, however, a gradual decline in staff performance was noted.
Operant conditioning of rectosphincteric responses in the treatment of fecal incontinence.
TLDR
The findings highlight the importance of synchronized rectosphincteric responses in the maintenance of fecal continence and show that these responses can be brought under voluntary control in patients with chronic fecal incontinence, even when theincontinence is secondary to organic lesions.
Irritable bowel syndrome: physiological and psychological differences between diarrhea-predominant and constipation-predominant patients.
TLDR
There was no correlationbetween amount of psychopathology and either colonic motility or severity of symptoms in the whole group of IBS patients, and patients with IBS showed significantly elevated levels on the following psychological traits.
Prevalence, incidence and correlates of urinary incontinence in healthy, middle-aged women.
TLDR
The results indicate that urinary incontinence is common among middle-aged women and that few seek treatment suggests a need for more information about women's attitudes toward incontinentity and more attention to this problem by health care providers.
A descriptive analysis of nursing staff behaviors in a teaching nursing home: differences among NAs, LPNs, and RNs.
TLDR
It is concluded that nursing staff devote most of their time to patient needs and relatively little time to nonproductive activities.
Behavioral training for post-prostatectomy urinary incontinence.
TLDR
It is indicated that biofeedback training is an effective intervention for episodic stress or urge incontinence after prostatectomy, however, its usefulness appears to be limited in patients with postoperativeincontinence characterized by continual leakage.
Biofeedback Treatment of Fecal Incontinence in Geriatric Patients
TLDR
Biofeedback training did significantly augment sphincter strength and was associated with greater than 75 per cent decreases in incontinence for 10 patients, and appears to be of specific value in the treatment of fecal incontinent in geriatric patients.
Normative patterns of diurnal urination across 6 age decades.
TLDR
The patterns and frequency of diurnal urination were studied in 412 male and 244 female participants in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging and an age by sex interaction showed that voiding in men increased across the decades and in women it decreased.
Urinary incontinence in the elderly. Bladder-sphincter biofeedback and toileting skills training.
TLDR
Behavioral treatment of urinary incontinence was given to 39 elderly outpatients, and 13 of the patients achieved total continence, and 19 had fewer than one accident per week after treatment.
