The purpose is to find out the rate of nocturnal enuresis in school going children (5-12 years) and the risk factors associated with it.
The parents of children aged between 5 and 12 years studying in two primary schools in Ahmedabad completed a self-administered semi-structured questionnaire comprising of enuresis, sociodemographic profiles, and risk factors. Children with enuresis and those without were compared on demographic characteristics and risk factors using Chi-square and -test for categorical and quantitative data respectively. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 17.
The response rate was 86.54% as 1904 responses were collected out of 2200. The overall rate of nocturnal enuresis was 6.7% (according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5 Edition definition of nocturnal enuresis). As the age increased, the rate of nocturnal enuresis declined. A positive family history was seen in 36.6% of children with enuresis. Enuresis was found to be more frequently in lower socioeconomic class. It was a neglected problem, only 20.6% of children received some kind of treatment.
The rate of nocturnal enuresis was 6.7% in school going children. Strong correlation was found with family history. Although the rate was high, most of the children with enuresis were not treated.
旨在了解学龄儿童（5 - 12岁）的夜间遗尿发生率及其相关危险因素。
在艾哈迈达巴德市两所小学就读的5至12岁儿童的家长完成了一份自我管理的半结构化问卷，内容包括遗尿情况、社会人口学特征和危险因素。分别使用卡方检验和t检验对有遗尿和无遗尿儿童的人口统计学特征及危险因素进行分类数据和定量数据的比较。数据采用SPSS 17版进行分析。
共收集到2200份问卷中的1904份回复，回复率为86.54%。根据《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第5版中夜间遗尿的定义，夜间遗尿的总体发生率为6.7%。随着年龄增长，夜间遗尿发生率下降。36.6%有遗尿的儿童有阳性家族史。遗尿在社会经济地位较低的阶层更为常见。这是一个被忽视的问题，只有20.6%的儿童接受了某种治疗。
学龄儿童夜间遗尿发生率为6.7%。发现与家族史有很强的相关性。尽管发生率较高，但大多数遗尿儿童未得到治疗。
