Your patient just presented with urinary incontinence. It’s been a while since you’ve had to recall the different types of urinary incontinence, not to mention the treatment options, device reimbursement qualifications, and urinary incontinence ICD 10 coding. Here’s a quick refresher of the most common types of incontinence: 1 Stress urinary incontinence (N39.3) is an involuntary loss of urine with a sudden increase in abdominal pressure. These patients leak when they sneeze, laugh, cough, or exercise. It is the most common type of incontinence. It affects women more frequently than men, often starting after the trauma of childbirth. 2 Urge urinary incontinence (N39.41) occurs when patients have a sudden urge to urinate and subsequent loss of bladder control. It is associated with detrusor muscle hyperactivity. Urge incontinence occurs in both men and women, with a higher incidence among the elderly. 3 Mixed urinary incontinence (N39.46) presents with symptoms of both stress and urge incontinence. It is more common to have mixed incontinence than to have solely urge incontinence. 4 Overactive bladder (N32.81) is basically urge incontinence without the leaks. These patients are quick enough and mobile enough to get to the toilet before having an accident.
