Özet:

 Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the effect of demographic characteristics of patients applying to the urology outpatient clinic on urinary incontinence awareness and attitudes. Materials and methods: The data of this descriptive and cross-sectional study were collected between 07092023-08102023 with Personal Information Form, Urinary Incontinence Awareness Attitude Scale data collection tools from 180 people who applied to urology outpatient clinic by face-to-face interview method. Data were analyzed with the SPSS 25.0 package program. In all analyses, p0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: In the factors that prevent the scale from being accepted as a health problem sub-dimension, educational status increases the scores; Educational status and frequency of caffeinetea consumption had a decreasing effect on scores in the health motivation sub-dimension; In the coping with incontinence subdimension, being male lowers the scores, while education level, presence of a chronic disease and having undergone surgery increase the scores; In the restriction sub-dimension, it was found that age, marital status, place of residence, presence of chronic disease and frequency of changing underwear had a decreasing effect on scores. In the sub-dimension of fear of urinary incontinence, it was found that gender, marital status, and frequency of changing underwear had a decreasing effect. Conclusion: Male are more likely to accept urinary incontinence as a health problem. The factors that prevent adults from accepting it as a health problem and the sub-dimensions of coping with urinary incontinence are good. It was determined that the health motivation sub-dimension and the fear of urination sub-dimension of the patients who applied to the urology outpatient clinic were at a weak level, and the restriction sub-dimension was at a medium level.

 Amaç: Bu çalışma üroloji polikliniğine başvuran hastaların demografik özelliklerinin üriner inkontinans farkındalığına ve tutumlarına etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel türde olan bu çalışmanın verileri 07092023-08102023 tarihleri arasında Kişisel Bilgi Formu ve Üriner İnkontinansla Farkındalık Tutum Ölçeği veri toplama araçları ile Üroloji polikliniğe başvuran 180 kişiden yüz yüze görüşme metodu ile toplanmıştır. Veriler SPSS 25.0 paket programıyla analiz edilmiştir. Tüm analizlerde p0.05 istatistiksel olarak anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Ölçeğin sağlık sorunu olarak kabulünü engelleyen faktörler alt boyutunda eğitim durumunun puanları yükseltici olduğu; sağlık motivasyonu alt boyutunda eğitim durumu ve kafein-çay tüketimi sıklığının puanları düşürücü etki ettiği; inkontinansla başetme alt boyutunda erkek olmanın puanları düşürücü, eğitim durumu, kronik hastalık varlığı ve ameliyat geçirmiş olma durumunun puanları yükseltici olduğu; kısıtlanma alt boyutunda yaş, medeni durum, yaşanılan yer, kronik hastalık varlığı ve iç çamaşır değiştirme sıklığının puanları düşürücü etki gösterdiği bulunmuştur. İdrar kaçırma korkusu alt boyutunda ise cinsiyetin, medeni durumun ve iç çamaşır değiştirme sıklığının düşürücü etki ettiği bulunmuştur. Sonuç: Erkeklerin üriner inkontinansı sağlık sorunu olarak kabullenmeleri daha yüksektir. Araştırma kapsamındaki yetişkin bireylerin, sağlık sorunu olarak kabulünü engelleyen faktörler, üriner inkontinans ile başetme alt boyutları iyi düzeydedir. Üroloji polikliniğine başvuran hastaların, sağlık motivasyonu alt boyutu ve ve idrar korkusu yaşama alt boyutu kötü düzeyde, kısıtlama alt boyutu orta düzeyde olduğu bulunmuştur.
