Urinary incontinence: treatments, interventions, and outcomes.
The central theme of this article is the development of clinical outcomes and interventions by CNSs to enhance the quality of care provided by nurses. This was done using findings from three funded research projects conducted by the authors. The outcomes begin with measurable nursing diagnoses and continue with searches for remedial risk factors, assessment, and remedies. The interventions encourage responsible behaviors by elders that are individualized prevention and/or treatments for a given diagnosis. A brief synopsis of the research results is included.
