AB Urinary  incontinence  is  defined  by  the  International  Continence  Society  (ICS)  as  “the  complaint  of  involuntary  leakage  of  urine.”  The  most  common  forms  of  urinary  incontinence  are  classified  as  stress,  urgency,  and  mixed  urinary  incontinence.  The  current  ICS  definition  of  stress  urinary  incontinence  (SUI)  is  subjective  based  on  symptoms  perceived  by  the  patient:  “stress  urinary  incontinence  is  the  complaint  of  involuntary  leakage  on  effort  or  exertion,  or  on  sneezing  or  coughing.”1  In  contrast,  urgency  urinary  incontinence  is  “the  complaint  of  involuntary  leakage  accompanied  by  or  immediately  preceded  by  urgency,”  and  mixed  urinary  incontinence  is  “a  combination  of  symptoms  of  both  stress  and  urgency  urinary  incontinence.”
