Abstract
A true experimental study to assess the efficacy of behavior modification therapy on Nocturnal Enuresis among children residing in selected rural areas in Madurai was carried out to identify the prevalence of Nocturnal Enuresis among children and to evaluate the effectiveness of behavior modification therapy. Sampling Technique: simple random sampling technique. Sample: 100 nocturnal enuretic children in the age of 5 – 10 years from two rural areas of Madurai. Tool: Nocturnal Enuretic rating scale was used to assess the Nocturnal enuresis level. Intervention: Behavior modification therapy was implemented for experimental group including Lifting, Waking, Stop – start training, Good bladder health recommendation, Treatment of nocturnal polyuria, Retention control training and reinforcement therapy which was a 15 minutes session a day over 4 weeks. Statistical analysis: Obtained data analyzed in terms of both descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Findings showed that, the overall prevalence of Nocturnal enuresis was 47.75%. In pre test; 36 children (72%) were in moderate level and 1 child (2%) was in severe level of Nocturnal enuresis. Whereas, in post test with none of them were in moderate and severe level of Nocturnal enuresis. All (100%) were in mild level of Nocturnal enuresis. But in control group, Nocturnal enuresis level remain unchanged. The mean post test nocturnal enuretic score 1.14 of experimental group was lower than the mean post test nocturnal enuretic score 5.9 of control group with a ‘t’ value 18.6. There was no association between the nocturnal enuretic score and demographic variables. Conclusions: It can be concluded that behavior modification therapy also can used to reduce the Nocturnal enuresis level in children.
