8edwetting: Causes and Cures
According to a recent rudy. 14 percent of children between the ages of
S and 13 wet the bed. Nighuime bedweuing can result from many differ
ent causes. Heredity seems to be a big factor. It has been reported that in
44 percent of families with a child that wets the bed, one of the child's
parents also was a bedweuer, The incidence is higher if both parents were
bedwetters. .

Orgm:aic cause ofbedwetting include structural defects in the urinary
tract at birth, a small bladder, urinary tract infections, diabetes, epilepsy,
and neurological problems. Researchers recently found that the absence
of abe hormone vasopressin may be a factor in childhood bedwetting.
Organic causes may require surgery or other procedures.
Nonorganic causes may be approached with behavioral techniques.
The child may be instructed to take charge of such thing as making a trip
to the bathroom before bedtime, washing soiled bedclothes, and charting
the progress of the num� of dry nights experienced. Moisture alarm sys
tems are sometimes useful. Prescription medicines used to treat bedwet
