The objectives of these studies are to determine the presence of IC and the profile of users who suffer from it in 8 nursing homes in the province of Pontevedra of new admission in 2017, as well as the identification of the frequency of underdiagnosis in the filiation of the mental pathology that causes IC and if that underdiagnosis is related to the presence of doctors or nurses specialists in geriatrics.
