Urinary incontinence (UI) is a common and disabling problem after stroke. Clinical practice guidelines have been developed outlining assessment parameters and identifying treatment options for incontinence in adults. Research on UI after stroke reveals the need for interventions to treat urge and stress incontinence as well as manage or prevent urinary retention and overflow incontinence. Strategies need to be tailored to individuals with varying levels of physical and cognitive ability. This article describes the nature of voiding problems after stroke, explores the impact on recovery and life after stroke, and outlines recommendations for evaluating and treating UI based on the continence literature.
