Abstract

Bedwetting is a very common condition affecting about 15% of children 6 years of age, and is considered one of the main reasons for referrals to pediatricians. Bedwetting is a medical situation and should be managed by physicians. A child wetting his bed is distressing and this has a deep impact on the child's behavior and it is also very stressful for the parents. The causes of bedwetting are not fully understood. Bedwetting can be considered to be a symptom that may result from a combination of different factors. This guideline presents recommendations on the assessment and management of bedwetting in children.
