S2E6 - Bedwetting Assessment Red Flags and Alarm Therapy


Listen Later

Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!


Nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting) is a classic, high-stress AMC clinical scenario affecting many children. This episode guides IMGs through the essential bio-psycho-social approach. We emphasise enuresis alarm therapy as the most effective long-term treatment for motivated children aged ≥6−7 years. Learn the evidence (two-thirds achieve dryness) and the non-punitive, collaborative counselling framework. Crucially, master the safety domain: screen meticulously for red flags (daytime wetting, constipation, diabetes symptoms, UTI). Missing these or prescribing drugs first-line without discussing alarms constitutes a critical error. Normalise the condition and set realistic expectations to ace this station.
