title: Management of urinary incontinence.
abstract: Urinary incontinence is one of the most embarrassing disabilities in the elderly people. It may be defined as an involuntary loss of urine in a quantity or frequency sufficient to cause a social or hygienic problem. Its magnitude is both overlooked and underestimated by the medical community. Unfortunately, urinary incontinence lacks the glamour of other 'high tech' medical problems.
