ABSTRACT
Introduction: enuresis is defined as the involuntary release of urine that usually occurs in children while sleeping at night, but it can also occur during daytime sleep. It is considered pathological over 5 years of age.Objective: to describe the clinical and epidemiological aspects of non-organic enuresis in the child and adolescent population of the 15th Basic Health Team of "Marta Martinez Figuera" Teaching Polyclinic.
Methods: a descriptive, transversal research conducted during the time period from January 2010 to January 2011, in Güines municipality, Mayabeque province. The sample consisted of 38 children and adolescents who met inclusion criteria previously established.
Results: in this study predominated the infantile enuresis of the primary type, between 5-8 years of age and with an evolution of symptoms within 1-4 years. No statistically significant differences were found with regard to sex and it was shown poor association between the enuretic symptom and the presence of comorbid diseases. The vast majority of the children studied had received treatment for their control at the time of the study, and it was demonstrated an inadequate evolution of the enuretic symptom despite treatment used.
Conclusions: it was demonstrated the presence of non-organic enuresis in the children studied. It was considered convenient to design intervention studies aimed at reducing the affectations to health in children with this pathology.
