The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between primary nocturnal enuresis and parasomnias. The parasomnias consist of clinical disorders that are not abnormalities of the processes responsible for sleep and awake states but, rather, are undesirable physical phenomena that occur predominantly during sleep. Parasomnias in children include most commonly: sleepwalking, night terrors, somniloquy, nocturnal enuresis, sleep bruxism, and body rocking. They are common in childhood and adolescence, and may result in significant distress to the victim and/or family members, and occasionally result in violent and injurious behavior.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between primary nocturnal enuresis and parasomnias. The parasomnias consist of clinical disorders that are not abnormalities of the processes responsible for sleep and awake states but, rather, are undesirable physical phenomena that occur predominantly during sleep. Parasomnias in children include most commonly: sleepwalking, night terrors, somniloquy, nocturnal enuresis, sleep bruxism, and body rocking. They are common in childhood and adolescence, and may result in significant distress to the victim and/or family members, and occasionally result in violent and injurious behavior.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
