Abstract		The recognition and assessment of the pattern and severity of urinary incontinence are the key elements of effective treatment. Barriers, such as embarrassment, reticence, taboos or simple complacency with the symptoms should be removed in identifying causes and detecting the contributing problems. Stress urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary loss of urine, frequently in small amounts, which occurs simultaneously with abrupt increases of intra-abdominal pressure. This disorder not only has a physical, but also psychosocial impact on the patient's life, therefore treatment of this most frequent type of urinary incontinence requires lifestyle modifications, as well as physical therapy and the administration of new drugs.
Summary		Prepoznavanje vzorca in stopnje urinske inkontinence je osnova uspešne obravnave v ambulanti družinskega zdravnika. Premagovanje ovir, kot so zadrega, prekrivanje ali preprosto sprijaznjenje s simptomi, pomaga pri iskanju vzrokov in sprožilnih dejavnikov. Nehoteno uhajanje urina, običajno v majhnih količinah, sočasno z nenadnim dvigom tlaka v trebuhu imenujemo stresna inkontinenca. Zaradi svojih fizičnih, pa tudi psihosocialnih posledic si ta najpogostejša oblika uhajanja urina pri ženskah zasluži vso pozornost družinskega zdravnika. Metode zdravljenja stresne inkontinence vključujejo prilagoditve življenjskega sloga, fizikalno zdravljenje, kirurške korekcije in nove možnosti zdravljenja z zdravili.
