Objective. To analyze the prevalence of domestic violence in adult women during confinement derived from the Co­vid-19 pandemic and individual, familiar and communitarian associated factors. Materials and methods. A second­ary analysis was carried out the 2020 National Health and Nutrition Survey on Covid-19, with national representation. A logistic regression model adjusted for the variables of interest was performed. Results. The prevalence was 5.8%. The most reported acts were shouting, insults or threats (4.3%). Most of the women who reported some type of violence in the home had already experienced it before the confinement. Low levels of well-being (OR= 1.96, 95%CI: 1.28,2.99), and living in a home where job was lost due to contingency (OR= 1.96, 95%CI: 1.41,2.73) were associated factors. Conclusions. In care interventions, it is necessary to take into account factors that deepen the vulnerability of women, such as pre-existing violence and loss of employment.

Urinary incontinence (UI) is a highly prevalent and bothersome problem that affects men and women of all ages. The aetiological spectrum of UI is wide, encompassing dysfunctions of the lower urinary tract, its neural control, the pelvic floor as well as other factors such as the side effects of pharmacotherapy. Although not life-threatening, UI frequently impacts upon the quality of life, psychological and emotional well-being of affected individuals. Additionally, UI imposes a tremendous economic burden on both the individual and the wider society in costs of nursing care, treatments, and lost productivity. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a broad overview of the epidemiology, aetiopathophysiology of UI, and to discuss the approach to the assessment, investigation, and initial management of the patient presenting with UI.
