PURPOSE: This correlational survey study aimed to evaluate thirst severity, death anxiety, and the use of complementary and supportive therapy as predictors of urinary incontinence-related quality of life in older adults.
METHODS: The study included 368 participants aged 60 or older. Data were collected by face-to-face interviews using a participant information form, the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Visual Analog Scale for thirst severity, Death Anxiety Scale, a modified version of the Mini Mental State Examination, and questions about their use of complementary and supportive therapies.
RESULTS: The participants had a mean age of 70.5 ± 6.9 years (54.9% female). Mean ICIQ-SF score was significantly correlated with daytime frequency of urine leakage and thirst severity score. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that thirst severity was a significant predictor of urinary incontinence-related quality of life. Most of the older adults said they had never used complementary or supportive therapies for urinary incontinence.
CONCLUSION: Thirst severity should be assessed in older adults with urinary incontinence in addition to other factors that may affect ICIQ-SF scores.
