We reviewed the definition and etiologies of nocturia, offering the current diagnostic procedures and standards of care.
We reviewed recent published literature regarding nocturia, along with current paradigms for diagnosis and management.
Nocturia is common as a limited occurrence but troublesome if the patient regularly experiences more than 2 episodes during sleep hours. The 4 principle etiologies associated with nocturia (nocturnal polyuria, decreased nocturnal bladder capacity, mixed polyuria, and global polyuria) may be easily differentiated through mathematical analysis of a 24-hour bladder diary.
Nocturia is highly treatable in many patients. Identification of the precise type and its cause enable clinicians to minimize the inconvenience and sleep deprivation associated with nocturia.
我们回顾了夜尿症的定义和病因，介绍了当前的诊断程序和护理标准。
我们回顾了近期发表的关于夜尿症的文献，以及当前的诊断和管理模式。
夜尿症偶尔发生较为常见，但如果患者在睡眠时间经常出现超过2次夜尿，则会造成困扰。与夜尿症相关的4种主要病因（夜间多尿、夜间膀胱容量减少、混合性多尿和全身性多尿）可通过对24小时膀胱日记进行数学分析轻松区分。
许多患者的夜尿症是高度可治疗的。确定确切类型及其病因可使临床医生将与夜尿症相关的不便和睡眠剥夺降至最低。
