The incidence of urinary incontinence after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and other neurologic injuries is high: 81% of people with spinal cord injury report neurogenic bladder (Moore & Neville, 2006), and 62% of patients in acute rehabilitation after TBI experience urinary incontinence (Chua, Chuo, & Kong, 2003).
