Urinary Incontinence in Women (American College of Physicians PIER)
Because urinary tract infections can mimic symptoms of incontinence and may increase its severity, a clinical evaluation of women with urinary incontinence includes a urinalysis, along with a physical exam, measurement of postvoid residue, and review of a bladder record.

In addition to diagnosis, this activity covers prevention of incontinence in patients with known risk factors, screening using specific questions, consultation if the underlying cause is uncertain or if the condition is complicated by other abnormalities, and non-drug and drug therapy. » Go to this activity
 
Bothersome Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms No Longer Responsive to Medical Treatment
This interactive case involves the visit of a 65-year-old woman for whom urgency and frequency have become frustrating and embarrassing, although a combination of pharmacotherapy and physical therapy previously had resulted in near-normal function for several years.

After completion of this activity, participants should be better able to describe the pathophysiology of overactive bladder (OAB); identify effective and sensitive communication strategies to discuss OAB with patients; develop a clinically feasible screening process; describe the diagnostic process, including appropriate criteria for specialty testing; identify key conclusions regarding benefits and limitations of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic therapies; set appropriate treatment goals; integrate appropriate pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic therapies; develop appropriate follow-up plans; and describe appropriate roles of PCPs, OB/GYNs, and urologists in diagnosis and treatment of OAB. » Go to this activity
