Abstract:
A survey was carried out at Hµ Håi commune, Thêng TÝn district, Hµ T©y province. 100% of the household were surveyed for essential enuresis in children by using the designed questionnaire. The children were screened and examined to exclude physical disorders. The results showed that the incidence of essential enuresis was high (5.01%) in 5 - 14 years of age group. There was not difference between men and women in the incidence, but the incidence has tended to decrease consistently from 5 to 14 years of age. It is showed that the spontaneous resolution occurred with a certain rate when the children growing.
