About this trial

PRAFAB assesses both the objective and subjective aspects of urinary incontinence. While differing from other questionnaires in this respect, it consists of only five questions. Today, there is a need for multidimensional and easy-to-use scales that can assess the effects of incontinence on quality of life. Therefore, the aim of this study is to conduct a Turkish validity and reliability study of the PRAFAB questionnaire in women with urinary incontinence.
