ABSTRACT: Introduction:
Quality of life in Parkinson disease is not necessary linked to motor symptoms.
It’s correlated of overactive bladders and prostatic symptoms. Prognosis
factors of urinary quality of life are unknown. Objectives: Our study aims to
find prognosis factors of quality of life associated specifically of urinary
disorders in PD. Patients and methods: We conducted a transversal, analytic and
descriptive study in Physical Medicine, and Neurology departments, Fann
Teaching Hospital, Dakar and included patients followed for treatment of PD.
Urinary disorders, quality of life and functional autonomy were assessed
respectively by Urinary Symptoms Profile (USP), Qualiven Short Form, Schwab and
England Scale. Results: 38 patients presented PD, with a mean age of 60.89 ±
13.6 years and sex-ratio of 2.45. Mean duration of PD was 3.1 ± 2.9 years.
Urinary disorders were found in 47.36% and dominated by incontinence (88.88%)
and overactive bladders (88.88%) which were minor in more than 55%. Quality of
life was impaired in 88.88% of cases. Minor forms (43.75%) were predominant and
constraint dimension (50%) was the most severely altered. Prognosis factors for
quality of life of urinary disorders were PD stages (0.046) and functional
autonomy (0.042). Discussion and conclusion: Urinary disorders in PD are
common, impaired quality of life, especially the constraint dimension, depends
on stage of evolution of PD and functional autonomy of patients.
