简要总结
Introduction: Enuresis is defined as urinary incontinence during sleep that occurs after 5 years of age. The most common form of this condition is monosymptomatic enuresis, in which daytime urinary symptoms do not coexist. Treatment with desmopressin is established, but there is no complete response to symptoms. Transcutaneous parasacral nerve electrical stimulation is well established in the treatment of lower urinary tract disorders, and has recently shown good results in monosymptomatic enuresis. The association of different treatment modalities has been studied, but there is no study evaluating the association of these two modalities. Objective: To evaluate the clinical response of transcutaneous parasacral nerve electrical stimulation associated with desmopressin in children with monosymptomatic enuresis compared to treatment with desmopressin. Material and methods: Prospective, controlled and randomized study, where the children involved will be divided into two groups: CG (desmopressin and placebo electrical stimulation) and GI (desmopressin and electrical stimulation). Both groups will perform 16 electrotherapy sessions, once a week, for 40 minutes, with the following parameters: frequency of 10 Hz, pulse width of 700 µs and intensity determined by the patient. Improvement in enuresis will be assessed using the dry nights calendar and will be performed at two times, 4 months and 6 months after the end of treatment.
