Bedwetting, or enuresis, is common in children. Early intervention is key to prevent psychological distress and improve outcomes, especially as children age.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Child Psychology
  • Urology

Background:

  • Enuresis affects millions of children, often leading to guilt and shame.
  • Spontaneous resolution occurs at 15% per year, increasing treatment importance with age.
  • Distinguishing primary from secondary enuresis is crucial for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the management of enuresis in children.
  • To highlight the importance of psychological well-being in enuresis treatment decisions.
  • To present a multidimensional treatment approach.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of enuresis etiology and contributing factors.
  • Discussion of pharmacologic, behavioral, and psychotherapeutic interventions.
  • Presentation of a successful multidimensional treatment program.

Main Results:

  • A careful history aids in identifying etiology and exacerbating factors.
  • Multidimensional treatment approaches are often most effective.
  • Successful treatment can be gratifying for the child, parents, and clinician.

Conclusions:

  • Addressing psychological sequelae is vital in enuresis management.
  • Timely and appropriate treatment can significantly benefit children with enuresis.
  • A comprehensive, multidimensional approach yields positive outcomes.
