About this trial

The Urgency, Severity, and Impact Questionnaire (USIQ) assesses urinary urgency independently of incontinence, measuring both symptom severity and its impact on quality of life. While validated in English and Hebrew populations, a Turkish version has not yet been developed. This study aims to adapt USIQ for the Turkish population and evaluate its psychometric properties, providing a standardized, culturally relevant tool for clinical and research use.
