Impact of urinary incontinence among menopausal women on self-efficacy In Babylon City

Abstract EN

Objective : to well-built the self-efficacy of menopausal women with urinary incontinence for being able to master challenging demands by means of adaptive action in dealing and treat the incontinence.

Methodology : descriptive non probability study conducted on 200 menopausal women (45-65) years old with urinary incontinence.

Results : the study found that (74 %) they are married and (43.5 %) was illiterate.

Women in this study had (19%) urge incontinence, (16.5 %) stress incontinence with (38 %) having mixed incontinence while (10.5 %) mild incontinence with 38.5 % having sever incontinence.

And the results show that there is statistically highly significant between the item 1 (If someone opposes me ; I can find the means and ways to get what I want) and degree of urinary incontinence, a significant correlation between the item 3 (It is easy for me to stick to my aims and accomplish my goals) with the types of urinary incontinence and A significant correlation between the item 10 (I can usually handle whatever comes in my way)and duration of urinary incontinence.

The findings suggest constructing a strategy to help women maintain self-efficacy for a positive approach to outcome and greater beliefs in their general coping abilities and ability to deal with and the expected efficacy of treatment and coping with urinary incontinence.
