Brief summary

Nocturia is the leading cause of sleep disruption with its subsequent negative impact on general health and QoL for a large proportion of the adult population. Nocturia is prevalent in men and women of all ages but may be particularly bothersome in younger adults, in whom the consequences of sleep disturbance may be more detrimental for daytime functioning and possibly for health and mortality.The underlying causes of nocturia obviously influence the efficacy of different treatment options. Because a major cause of nocturia is overproduction of urine at night, nocturia may not respond to treatments designed to reduce urgency and increase bladder capacity or increase urine flow, such as agents for the management of bladder outlet obstruction.

Detailed description

Nocturia may be more than simply a patient inconvenience, in view of its association with increased risk of morbidity and mortality. Clinicians often underestimate the consequences of nocturia, however, and thus fail to perform a thorough evaluation of the condition and its causes. Patients with nocturia deserve full consultation and implementation of an appropriate management strategy to ensure that the specific underlying medical conditions associated with nighttime voiding are addressed. Investigators should help women with nocturia as to improve their sleep. Participants will strengthen their pelvic floor muscles and abdominal muscles to control voiding so their sleep will not disturb to decrease their sufferance.
