ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying the effects of laser acupuncture on a condition called monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis, which is a fancy term for bedwetting that occurs at night in adolescent girls. The goal is to see if this treatment can help those who have not had success with standard medication, specifically desmopressin acetate.
To participate in this study, girls aged 10 to 18 who experience bedwetting and have not responded to traditional treatments may be eligible. However, those with certain health issues, such as psychological or neurological disorders, chronic diseases, or urinary tract infections, will not be included. If chosen to take part, participants can expect to receive laser acupuncture treatment and will be monitored throughout the study to assess its effectiveness. This trial is currently recruiting participants, so it’s a great opportunity for those needing help with this condition.
