Social Group. Few population-based studies have considered socio-economic factors.Crome et al. (2001) showed a slightly higher prevalence for occasional (minor) incontinence in public rented (8.5%) compared to own homes (6.5%) but the levels were
similar for frequent (major) incontinence. Secondary analysis of the MRC Incontinence Study (UK) suggests that the prevalence of monthly (moderate) leakage increases with worsening socio-economic status (Table 2.4). There were no statistically significant differences between white and South Asian groups either before or after adjusting for other social factors.

Disability. Information concerning people with learning disability (LD) is available
from the Leicestershire population-based Learning Disability Register (McGrother et
al. 1996).Comparison of the prevalence of faecal incontinence with the general population in Leicestershire (Perry et al. 2002) shows a greater than sevenfold higher rate
for those aged over 40 years (Table 2.5). A threefold increase is present for the mobile
sub-group with relatively normal physical functioning, compatible with independent
living. Prevalence among non-mobile people with LD is similar to that in elderly people in long-term care facilities in Leicestershire (Arthur et al.2002).

2.3 Associated Factors
Urinary Incontinence. Faecal incontinence is consistently associated with urinary
incontinence in adults (Table 2.6). In the general population in women,across a variety of age groups over 20,the strength of association ranged from an odds ratio of 1.5 to
17 (adjusted for age).The association was convincing for urge incontinence but marginal for stress incontinence. In men, similar overall estimates ranged from 3.0 to 5.1.
Non-age adjusted estimates showed similar ranges for women (2.1–11.5) and men
(2.1–3.1). Residents in long-term care showed relatively strong associations between
10.4 and 20.5 for multivariate analyses and 25 for non-age adjusted odds ratios (Aggazzotti et al. 2000; Nelson et al. 1998; Ouslander et al. 1993).
c
Health Factors. There was consistent evidence from population-based studies with
multivariate analyses to support associations between FI and poor health (Kalantar et
al. 2002; Crome et al.2001; Nakanishi et al.1997; Nelson et al.1995), poor physical func-

tioning (Crome et al.2001; Talley et al. 1992; Edwards and Jones 2001),depression (Edwards and Jones 2001; Crome et al. 2001;Black et al. 1998),anxiety (Edwards and Jones
2001; Crome et al.2001) and diarrhoea or loose stool (Talley et al. 1992; Kalantar et al.
2002). Other health factors identified in lone studies were constipation (Lam et al.
1999), incomplete defaecation and urgency (Kalantar et al. 2002), bodily pain (Crome
et al. 2001),and stroke (Nakanishi et al. 1997). Diabetes and dementia were also associated with isolated and double FI, respectively (Nakanishi et al. 1997). Although beyond the scope of the systematic review, consistent evidence was also observed from
prospective studies that instrumental vaginal delivery and sphincter damage were associated with FI (Macarthur et al. 1997; Faltin et al. 2001; Eason et al.2002; de Leeuw et
al. 2001).Among residents in long-term care, there was consistent evidence for association with poor mobility and dementia, and some indication of links with neurological disease and diarrhoea (Chassagne et al. 1999; Johanson et al.1997).
2.4 Conclusions
The results of this review are consistent with earlier reviews concerning the range of
prevalence for faecal incontinence in the general population. There was a reasonable
degree of consistency between individual studies on the prevalence of age-related
moderate or more faecal incontinence affecting between 2.8% and 10.0% of adults,
similarly in men and women, increasing with age. Males predominated at a younger
age, whereas females had higher prevalence at old age, but the differences were slight.
There was little evidence of differences in prevalence over time or between countries.
Prevalence in long-term care was much higher than in the community, especially for
major incontinence, and people with learning disability also experienced high rates.
There was evidence of a link with adverse socio-economic status, but no difference
was observed between whites and South Asians.There was a strong link between urinary and faecal incontinence.Faecal incontinence was also consistently related to poor
perceived health,including depression,anxiety,diarrhoea and physical functioning in
the general population.There was also consistent evidence for an association with instrumental vaginal delivery.
Methodologically,it appeared that prevalence estimates were primarily dependent
on the frequency and implicit severity of the wording of questions used plus the inclusion of people in long-term care.On the basis of this review, faecal incontinence could
be defined conceptually as ‘any involuntary leakage of faeces (liquid or solid) from the
bowel.However, the word ‘involuntary’ implies a degree of severity and ‘faeces’is not a
common term. Also, different thresholds are needed for particular purposes (e.g. for
health promotion or care). Therefore practical translation into a question would be ‘do
you ever leak (liquid or solid) from your bowel when you don’t mean to (day or night),
with responses ‘continuously, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or never’.
Faecal incontinence may be an effective marker for impairment but the coherent
whole that it represents is unclear and likely to involve other lower-bowel symptoms
such as urgency and constipation, representing disorder of the lower-bowel system.
Within such an umbrella, research measuring the public health burden and identifying causes and effects is likely to focus on the whole lower-bowel system including the
following elements:
21
(a) Burden, the presence and severity of faecal incontinence (and related lower-bow-
el symptoms); impact (as a whole) on QOL; clinically significant disorder (as a
whole); and felt need (i.e. use or want care)

22

(b) Causes and effects, the type and severity of faecal incontinence and related lower
bowel symptom syndrome; clinical management group and underlying pathophysiological process.
2
Realistic conceptual and terminological standards for each element are needed as a
basis for investigation, together with validated assessment and procedural standards
for research including reporting for meta-analysis purposes. Effective multidisciplinary research depends on knowledge of the relationship between these elements rather than the primacy of one over another.

3.1 Prevalence and Social Importance
Urinary and fecal incontinence is a frequent public health problem with negative social consequences. Failure to control the elimination of urine or stool causes psychological problems, complicates medical illness, makes management difficult and produces major economic consequences. Susceptibility is the result of anatomical, social,
economic and cultural factors.Also, urinary incontinence is a major clinical problem
that has a profound effect on quality of life and activities of daily living (Hollywood
and O’Dowd 1998) and isolates the affected person from friends and family. Women
with urinary incontinence report fear,frustration, shame and humiliation, and worry
about the odor of urine from pads and wet underclothing. Urinary incontinence is
physically debilitating and socially incapacitating, and is associated with loss of selfconfidence,feelings of helplessness, depression and anxiety.
The probability of incontinence increases with age. The nature of incontinence
changes from stress incontinence to urge incontinence with age as a result of an increasing prevalence of multiple disorders and organ dysfunction. This change has a
significant implication for clinical management.While stress incontinence is typically
managed with strengthening exercises for pelvic floor muscles, with or without neuromuscular electrostimulation and surgery, management of urge incontinence also include a bladder training program, drugs and transcutaneous electrostimulation aimed
at the spinal micturition reflex center.
Studies regarding the prevalence of urinary incontinence suggest that this problem
is widespread among women and men of all ages. The prevalence of urinary incontinence ranges from 10% to 60%, depending on the country and population studied.
Women are much more susceptible to urinary incontinence than men.Anatomical and
physiological differences,such as reproductive and hormonal changes associated with
pregnancy and menopause, explain the differences prevailing between male and female. It is highly probable that socioeconomic and cultural factors play a crucial role
in urinary incontinence. However, the extent of the influence of these factors on
women’s health remains relatively unknown. In contrast, fecal incontinence is less investigated and only few data are reported, mainly from clinical experience with patients with this disorder. These studies are methodologically rather weak in information. They generally focus on a narrow part of the problem that cannot be extrapolated to the entire population with incontinence.
The costs of urinary and fecal incontinence is not adequately described by the dollars spent in the healthcare system. Nonetheless, in the current climate of economic
healthcare rationalization,it remains useful to calculate the measurable costs of a disorder, as least to justify expenditure on this rather than upon some other medical
problem. The costs of an illness comprises three components: direct costs, which include personal costs (pads, replacement of urine-soaked clothes) and treatment costs
(met by patients and by several government subsidies); indirect costs, which include
lost productivity both in the home and in outside employment; and intangible costs,
which are most difficult to measure financially, but include psychological distress and
impaired physical or mental health.
