[Biological and psychosocial factors as a reason for enuresis in children]
Insights
Biological and psychosocial factors contribute to childhood enuresis. Early antenatal consultations and screening for urinary bladder and psychoneurological issues are crucial for prevention and treatment.
Area of Science:
- Pediatrics
- Psychology
- Obstetrics
Context:
- Investigated biological and psychosocial risk factors in 68 children aged 4-15 with enuresis.
- Identified maternal neuroticism during pregnancy and negative family attitudes as key factors.
Purpose:
- To analyze the combined impact of biological and psychosocial elements on childhood enuresis.
- To establish the necessity of integrated antenatal and postnatal interventions.
Summary:
- Childhood enuresis is linked to biological factors like maternal neuroticism and psychosocial factors such as adverse family dynamics.
- Combined risk factors necessitate comprehensive management strategies.
Impact:
- Highlights the need for antenatal consultations involving obstetricians, pediatricians, and psychologists for enuresis prevention.
- Emphasizes proactive screening for urinary bladder dysfunction and psychoneurological disorders in children with enuresis to ensure healthy personality development.
Abstract:
Biological (pregnancy in neurotic mothers) and psychosocial (wrong attitude of the family to enuretic child) risk factors were studied in 68 children with enuresis aged 4 to 15 years. It is shown that the presence of biological and psychosocial factors in combination with enuresis in children necessitate antenatal consultations of obstetricians, pediatrists, psychologists and parents on prevention of enuresis in children, active screening-testing children with enuresis for dysfunction of the urinary bladder and psychoneurological disorders affecting harmonic development of personality in children.
