Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Urinary incontinence refers to the inability to hold urine in the bladder and can result in leakage or complete loss of bladder control. It is different from the failure of the kidney to perform its function (A) and the inability to empty the bladder (B), which is known as urinary retention. Partial functioning of the kidney (D) is not related to urinary incontinence.
