Evaluation of the results of surgery treatment for female stress urinary incontinence with the ICIQ-UI SF questionnaire

Our objective was to evaluate the sensitivity to change of the Spanish version of the ICIQ-UI SF. Prospective study of 71 women with a diagnosis of Stress urinary incontinence (UI) treated with tension free vaginal tape. All had urodynamic diagnostic of Stress UI and ICIQ-UI SF score at the moment of inclusion and after treatment. According to the post-treatment urodynamic evaluation, 45 patients were cured (63.4%). According to the ICIQ-UI SF, 37 patients (52.9%) were cured. Post-treatment scores were lower than pre-treatment ones. Post-treatment scores of cured patients were lower than those of non cured (p < 0.005). The agreement between the ICIQ-UI SF score and the urodynamic evaluation was moderate. The ICIQ-UI SF questionnaire shows sensitivity to change.
