Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Sleep Medicine

Background:

  • Nocturia is a prevalent and bothersome urological symptom.
  • Understanding of nocturia's causes and classification has been limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current knowledge on nocturia.
  • To present updated algorithms for nocturia diagnosis, classification, and treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive review of recent scientific literature on nocturia.
  • Evaluation of state-of-the-art diagnostic, classification, and treatment methodologies.

Main Results:

  • Nocturia stems from diverse factors including medical conditions (cardiovascular disease, diabetes, LUTS), sleep disorders, and behavioral influences.
  • It can result from nocturnal polyuria or reduced bladder capacity, differentiated via voiding diaries.
