Bedwetting Evaluation & Treatment

Bedwetting, also called nocturnal enuresis, is a common condition in children where they involuntarily urinate during sleep, usually at night. While often a normal part of development, persistent bedwetting can affect a child’s confidence, sleep quality, and emotional well-being. Paediatric evaluation helps identify underlying causes such as delayed bladder control, urinary tract infections, constipation, or sleep disorders. With timely assessment, tailored treatment strategies—including behavioral therapy, lifestyle modifications, and medications—can effectively manage bedwetting, improve bladder function, and enhance the child’s quality of life.

  • Comprehensive Assessment: Includes medical history, physical examination, and urinalysis to rule out urinary tract infections or anatomical abnormalities.
  • Bladder and Sleep Evaluation: Assessment of bladder capacity, voiding patterns, fluid intake, and sleep habits to identify functional causes.
  • Behavioral & Lifestyle Modifications: Techniques such as bladder training, scheduled nighttime voiding, limiting evening fluids, and using bedwetting alarms.
  • Medical Management: Medications like desmopressin or anticholinergics may be prescribed for children who do not respond to behavioral measures.
  • Family Support & Education: Counseling parents and caregivers on patience, reassurance, and positive reinforcement to reduce stress and anxiety for the child.
