Urinary Incontinence and Psychological Distress Among Parents of Children With Spina Bifida

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to investigate how demographic factors and urinary symptoms in children with spina bifida affect the anxiety and depression levels of their parents. The study found that younger parental age and the presence of urinary incontinence in children were significantly associated with higher anxiety and depression scores among caregivers. These results highlight the need for targeted support for parents facing these challenges.
