Tiivistelmä
The aim of this study was to analyse the prevalence of pelvic floor disorders and to describe health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among older women born in 1948 and 1950. We also compared participants’ HRQoL with that of a representative sample of the age-matched general Finnish female population and analysed the association of socio-demographic, health-related variables and PDFs with HRQoL.
