Summary

This study looks at whether using a TENS machine (a device that sends mild electrical pulses through the skin) can reduce bedwetting in children. 70 kids who have not improved with simple behavior changes will use the device on their ankle for 30 minutes each night for a month. Researchers will compare two different pulse widths to see which works better at reducing wet nights.
