Abstract
Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine in sufficient amounts and with enough frequency to have negative health and social consequences.1 Identification of those with this symptom is not regularly accomplished because this is a problem that is underreported and underdiagnosed. Opportunities for early diagnosis and treatment are often missed owing to an individual's reluctance to address incontinence with his or her clinician because of embarrassment or shame. Clinicians fail to ask about urinary incontinence more than 90% of the time during outpatient care visits.
