Urinary incontinence is a serious medical and social problem affecting approximately 40% of elderly inpatients. Evaluating the extent of the illness and response to therapy requires an accurate method for quantitative measurement of urinary incontinence. Quantitative parameters of urinary loss include the frequency and volume of urinary incontinence. A telemetric incontinence detection instrument designed to measure incontinence frequency is described and the instrument is compared with a standard „wet check”︁ incontinence detection technique. The electronic instrument appears to be an accurate method for detection of urine loss and is nonobtrusive to the patients.
