Abstract Despite the high prevalence of enuresis, the professional training of doctors in the evaluation and management of this condition is often minimal and/or inconsistent. Therefore, patient care is neither optimal nor efficient, which can have a profound impact on affected children and their families. Once comprehensive history taking and evaluation haseliminated daytime symptoms or comorbidities, monosymptomatic enuresis can be managed efficaciously in the majority of patients. Non-monosymptomatic enuresis is often a more complex condition; these patients may benefit from referral to specialty care centers. We outline two alternative strategies to determine the most appropriate course of care. The first is a basic assessment covering only theessential components of diagnostic investigation which can be carried out in one office visit. The second strategy includes several additional evaluations including completion of a voiding diary, which requires extra time during the initial consultation and two office visits

before treatment or specialty referral is provided. This should yield greater success thanfirst-line treatment. Conclusion: This guideline, endorsed by major international pediatric urology and nephrology societies, aims to equip a general pediatric practice in both primary and secondary care with simple yet comprehensive guidelines and practical tools (i.e., checklists, diary templates, and quick-reference flowcharts) for complete evaluation and successful treatment of enuresis.Keywords Enuresis .

Frequent bedwetting (defined as >3 wet nights per week) has an estimated prevalence of nearly 10% in childrenaged 7 years [9, 16, 17, 22, 57] and is associated with embarrassment and significant emotional and practical difficulties for affected children and their families. Information available to families on the internet is often inaccurate, while guidelines for doctors are often center- or subdiscipline-dependent and are published in highly specific specialty journals not available to the majority...
