Bed wetting
Bed wetting, or nocturnal enuresis, refers to the unintentional
passage of urine during sleep. Enuresis is the medical term for wetting,
whether in the clothing during the day or in bed at night. Another name for
enuresis is urinary incontinence.
Types of
bedwetting
Two types of bedwetting occur:
- Primary enuresis -- bedwetting since
infancy; and Primary bedwetting is generally viewed as a delay in
maturation of the nervous system. Family history plays a big roll in
predicting primary bedwetting. If one parent was a bed wetter, the
offspring have a 45% chance of a developing primary enuresis as well. At 5
years of age, children wet the bed at least once a month both males and
females wetting nightly.
- Secondary enuresis -- wetting
developed after being continually dry for a minimum of six months. Urinary
tract infections, metabolic disorders (for example, various types of
diabetes), external pressure on the bladder (for example, extreme
constipation by a large rectal stool mass), as well as neurological
disorders of the spinal cord must be considered among the causes of
secondary bedwetting.
