Intuitivamente, vemos que los aspectos visuales que empleamos en la comunicación entre las personas, como el reconocimiento de la identidad, la edad, la postura, la dirección de la mirada y nuestros gestos, deberían ser los elementos a emplear en la interacción humano-máquina, ya que éstos constituyen la forma natural con la que nos comunicamos. Es por esto que, aunque también se consideran interfaces por voz y por tacto, las más estudiadas son las que emplean la visión.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Symptoms (Medicine)
  • Urinary Tract
DEF

A leakage of urine as a result of coughing, straining, or some sudden voluntary movement, due to incompetence of the sphincteric mechanisms.

CONT

Urinary stress incontinence occurs when the urethral sphincter or pelvic muscle cannot adequately support the bladder. This allows the bladder to slip down into the pelvic cavity and place pressure on the urethra, the duct that carries urine from the bladder to outside the body. As a result, body movements, such as exercising, coughing or sneezing, can place additional pressure on the bladder causing it to leak. Although it can affect anyone, it is a common condition among women who have gone through childbirth or menopause.

French
