Patient's question:
After wetting the bed at night, he falls into a deep sleep, urinating 1 to 2 times a day. Everything else is normal. Since childhood, he has occasionally wet the bed, but there are days when he doesn't. How can pediatric enuresis be treated?Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you described, it is mainly about enuresis in children. The main issue is that the baby is not easily awakened and sleeps quite soundly. Based on your baby's current condition, behavioral therapy and medication should be pursued simultaneously. Behavioral therapy is currently the most effective method for treating enuresis. The specific procedure is as follows: let the baby sleep on a specially made bed sheet that has two electrodes built-in. The other ends of the electrodes are connected to a bell and a power source. When the baby urinates, the circuit is completed, and the sound of the bell can wake the baby. If the baby does not wake up, parents should wake the baby to urinate. After many repetitions, it is recommended to establish a conditioned reflex. Once the baby has urine, the baby will wake up on its own to urinate.
