Abstract

Background Enuresis (NE) is a clinical condition of multifactorial etiology that leads to difficulties in child/adolescent social interaction. This was a prospective study on the impact of multidisciplinary assessment of 6- to 17-year-old patients with monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (MNE), including a structured history, clinical/neurological examination, bladder and bowel diaries, sleep diary and questionnaires, psychological evaluation {[}Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and PedsQL 4.0 questionnaires], urinary sonography, blood and urine laboratory tests, polysonography (PSG), and balance evaluation. A total of 140 enuretic participants were evaluated, of whom 27 were diagnosed with NE complicated by urinary disorder, four with hypercalciuria, three with nephropathy and one with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Among the 87 participants who underwent PSG, six were diagnosed with severe apnea. Of the 82 MNE patients who underwent full assessment, 62 were male (75.6 %), and the mean age was 9.5 (+/- 2.6) years. A family history of NE was diagnosed in 91.1 % of first- and second-degree relatives, constipation in 89.3 % and mild/moderate apnea in 40.7 %. Balance control alteration was identified by physical therapy evaluation of MNE patients. Participants' quality of life evaluation scores were significantly lower than those of their parents. Enuresis is a multifactorial disorder that requires a structured diagnostic approach. (AU)
