| description | Nocturnal enuresis (NE) is the second most chronic health problem in children and
it also can lead to socially disruptive and stressful condition. The aim of the present
study was to identify the prevalence, associated risk factors, parents strategies to
overcome NE and parents health seeking behavior for child’s NE. A cross sectional
survey study was conducted on 70 children aged between five to six years old at four
kindergarten in Kubang Kerian, Kelantan. Participant in this study was selected through
simple random sampling method. The association between selected socio-demographic
characteristics (age. gender, and number of siblings) and Nocturnal Enuresis were
analyzed using chi-square test and STATA. The association between school
performance (social, academic and physical) and Nocturnal Enuresis also was tested.
The overall prevalence of Nocturnal Enuresis was 47.1%. The associated risk factors for
Nocturnal Enuresis were positive family history, problem during birth, hyperactivity of
the child, urinate in pants during a day. constipation and urinary tract infection. Most
45.7% of parents had woke their child up to urinate as a strategy to overcome NE. All
parents had not seek treatment for child with NE. A significant association was found
between number of siblings and nocturnal enuresis (p= 0.024). A significant association
was also indicated between school performance (social, academic and physical) and
nocturnal enuresis (p<0.05). Identification of children at risk is an essential step before
choosing the individualized management for child's NE. The parents also must seek
appropriate treatment from health professional and applied the suitable strategies to
overcome child’s NE. |
