- Bedwetting_alarm abstract "A bedwetting alarm or enuresis alarm is an electronic device used as a treatment option for nocturnal enuresis. Nocturnal enuresis can be divided into two types: primary and secondary. Secondary enuresis is when the child has had at least one six month period during which no wetting occurred—in primary enuresis there is no history of a sustained dry period. The alarm activates when the wearer urinates.Alarms come in several different styles: wearable alarms, wireless alarms, and pad-type alarms. While there is some variation in the styles of the alarms, they all function similarly; each alarm has a moisture sensor component and an alarm component. When the child or patient first begins to urinate the sensor will detect the moisture and trigger the alarm.Bedwetting alarms are a treatment tool designed to teach people to respond to a full bladder by waking and using the toilet. Upon alarm activation, the child should get awaken and finish off in the toilet. In time, this is intended to result in classical conditioning between a full bladder and waking up to go to the toilet. Although insufficient evidence exists to recommend additional behavioral interventions such as journal keeping, fluid restrictions, and night awakenings, these supportive approaches are acceptable, benign starting points. Conditioning with an enuresis alarm and overlearning, which involves giving extra fluids at bedtime after successfully becoming dry, and intermittent reinforcement before ending treatment, is a highly effective first-line management approach.Success rates and the time to achieve success using bedwetting alarms can vary substantially between individuals. For children, a parent or caregiver often has to supervise a child when a bedwetting incident occurs. Commitment on the part of the patient and caregiver is essential to improving the success rate of alarm therapy. The conveniences provided by the bedwetting alarm being used can substantially contribute to positive attitudes and willingness to participate. The success of alarms requires a motivated time and effort commitment of 3 to 6 months. Typical success with bedwetting alarms (behavioral therapy) is 25% to stop nighttime wetting in 30 days, 50% in 60 days, and 90% in 90 days.The bedwetting alarm, also referred to in the medical community as an enuresis alarm, is categorized as D.M.E. (Durable Medical Equipment). As such, the cost may be a reimbursable covered expense by healthcare insurance carriers when it is prescribed by a pediatric physician, urologist, or other accepted medical authority.".
