Activity Description

Enuresis, commonly known as bedwetting, is a prevalent pediatric condition affecting approximately 15% of 5-year-old children. The condition is characterized by involuntary urination during sleep at least twice a week for 3 months in children older than 5. Enuresis is classified into 2 primary types: monosymptomatic enuresis, where bedwetting is the sole symptom, and non-monosymptomatic enuresis, which includes additional urinary symptoms such as urgency or frequency. Monosymptomatic enuresis can be divided into primary, where the child has never experienced a prolonged dry period, and secondary, where bedwetting recurs after at least 6 months of dryness. This condition can lead to significant emotional distress, social isolation, and academic difficulties, particularly if not managed sensitively and effectively.

The course equips participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to diagnose and manage both types of enuresis using evidence-based guidelines. Clinicians learn to implement a structured, stepwise treatment approach that includes patient and caregiver education, behavioral interventions, enuresis alarms, and pharmacologic therapies when needed. The course emphasizes the importance of interprofessional collaboration, involving pediatricians, urologists, psychologists, and nursing staff to create comprehensive, patient-centered care plans. This team-based approach enhances patient outcomes by addressing enuresis's physical and emotional aspects, improving treatment adherence, reducing stress, and supporting families in managing the condition effectively.
