  • Descrição: Nocturnal enuresi is a bio-behavioral problem that still effects many children and adolescents throughout the word, despite technological advancements in medicine and psychology, due to its inherited causes. Behavioral treatment with alarm is one of the most effective treatments for kids west their beds, achieving a success rate around 70%. In Brazil, at the clinic this work has been developed, many kids have severe enuresis and a high score of behavior problems. Therefore, a weekly visit protocol has been used to assure the patients will follow the procedures involved in the protocol. The objective of this work was to verify differencesin the outcome, behavior problems and droupout rate between two modes of treatment adminstration . Method: Two groups of kids (N=32) from ages 6 o 18 treated with urine alarm were compared. Both groups attended two initial sessions when the procedures were explained and were accompanied for 28 weeks. One group continued to visit the clinic eekly for treatment maintenance. The other group received further instructions by telephone. Results: Preliminary results indicate a slight better performance in treatment outcome for the patients who didn't had to visit the clinic. The dropout rates of these kids were also lower. Differences in behavior problem rates will be assessed. Conclusion: One possible explanation for this is the difficulty some families have to go to the clinic every week, due to financial problems. FAPESP.
