Sponsor's own description
Nocturnal enuresis is a worldwide health problem frequently encountered in childhood . It affects 18 % of younger school- age children in Egypt. It is the most frequent (85%) type of enuresis in children (Eberdt-Gołabek et al, 2013), . Nocturnal enuresis includes monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis with no day time urinary symptoms and non monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis that accompanied by day time urinary symptoms . It can cause severe psychological and social distress to children and their parents . The currently recommended treatment such as alarms , antidiuretic hormone and anticholenergics are not effective in all children with significant relapse rate . Although it's mechanism of action is not fully elucidated , posterior tibial nerve stimulation is safe and acceptable, with evidence of potential clinical effect for both bladder and bowel dysfunction (Bellette et al, 2009). This study will investigate the effect of posterior tibial nerve stimulation on primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis in children.
