ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the association of nocturnal enuresis with sleep, behavior and school performance. Methods: Hospital-based, cross-sectional descriptive study of 216 children (≥6-year-old) using structured questionnaire and behavioral tools. Results: Prevalence of enuresis was 37.0%. Nocturnal enuresis was significantly associated with abnormal behaviour (P=0.049) and poor sleep hygiene (P<0.05). School performance was not associated with enuresis. Conclusion: Children with nocturnal enuresis were at an increased risk of behavioral problems and poor sleep hygiene.
