dc.description.abstractThis research was performed to determine the risk factors causing stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and its effect on quality of life during pregnancy in primigravidae. The study is a cross-sectional study conducted with 324 primigravidae who were followed up in the antenatal outpatient clinics. Incontinence quality of life scale (I-QoL) questionnaire exploring the risk factors for SUI was used as the principle data collection tool. The prevalence of SUI during pregnancy was 38.6% (125/324). Multivariate analysis; maternal UI (OR = 2.9, 95% CI:1.5-5.5), sister having UI (OR = 5.6, 95% CI:1.5-20), gestational DM (OR = 3.3, 95% CI:1.2-8.6), pre-pregnancy BMI (OR = 1.08, 95% CI:1.0-1.1), smoking (OR = 4.3, 95% CI:1.8-10.2), constipation (often) (OR = 6.2, 95% CI:2.2-17) were determined as risk factors for SUI. It was determined that SUI during pregnancy affects the quality of life of women slightly. According to the results of this study, SUI is a common condition during pregnancy in primigravida. The findings will increase the awareness of healthcare professionals about SUI and contribute to the design of programs for the prevention of urinary incontinence during antenatal period.
