ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking to understand how well the Turkish version of a questionnaire can assess knowledge about dementia and urinary incontinence among older adults. The main goal is to see if this tool is valid and reliable for use in the community, meaning it should accurately measure what it intends to. Additionally, the study aims to find out how much knowledge elderly people have about these conditions.

To participate, you need to be at least 55 years old, able to read and write, and willing to take part in the study. Unfortunately, if you have a chronic illness that affects your ability to manage urinary retention or your dementia level, you won't be eligible. If you join the study, you will help researchers gather important information that could improve understanding and support for older adults dealing with these issues. Your participation could make a difference in how care is provided in the future!
