Summary

Paracascral transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (PTENS) is a credible therapeutic option for nocturnal enuresis. The investigators shall investigate whether maintenance PTENS after initial response improves durability of remission compared with observation alone.

Conditions

  • Nocturnal Enuresis in Children

Interventions

DEVICE

transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation

Parasacral transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (parasacral TENS or PTENS) is a non-invasive, neuromodulation intervention used for pediatric overactive bladder (OAB) and neurogenic bladder dysfunction, with emerging evidence for treating nocturnal enuresis. Target Area: Posteriorly on the skin at the sacral nerve outflow level (S2-S3), approximately one fingerbreadth away from the midline. Frequency: 10-20 Hz. Pulse Width: 200--700 mus (commonly used to activate sensory nerves). Intensity/Amplitude: Adjusted to the maximum tolerance of the child without causing pain, or just below the motor threshold (avoiding leg muscle contractions). Session 15-60 minutes}\\) (20 minutes is common in clinical settings). Frequency of Treatment: 2-3 times per week. Total Duration: Usually a total of 30-40 sessions over 6 months.
