dc.description.abstractNowadays, the number of female football players (high-impact sports) in Portugal, has been increasing. It is known that women who participate in repetitive and high-impact sports present a higher risk of urinary incontinence. This way, Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI) becomes an obstacle when associated with the practice of regular exercise and physical activities in women. This study aimed to verify SUI prevalence in senior female football players in football clubs in the Great Lisbon area. This study was a quantitative descriptive observational study. The prevalence of SUI was assessed with two instruments validated in Portuguese: King’s Health Questionnaire (KHQ) and International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF). KHQ measures the impact of urinary incontinence on the state of health and quality of life, with α= 0,564 ICIQ-SF assesses urine loss and how dysfunctions affect quality of life. It was a convenience sample. From a population of 1047 football players, 61 fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Which were: nulliparous women, aged between 18 and 40 years, 1 year of football experience, training duration was ≥ 60 minutes and exclusion criteria were women with previous urogynecology surgery. The collected data was analyzed with Microsoft Excel® and the Statistical Program for the Social Science (SPSS)version 25.0 with p< 0,05 statistically significant. The results of this study showed that 36.1% of female football players lost urine. 22 athletes lost urine, mostly 77.3% once a week and the most common cause with 40.9% was during the practice of football sport. It was not possible, according to the global analysis of the variables, to find any statistically significant difference with the variables of football characterization. However, the results obtained seem to point to a prevalence of SUI of 57.1% in the extreme left and 66.7% in the extreme right field position.pt_PT
