SITTA:
The pre-RCT SITTA research study was completed in 2019 and presented at the Irish Paediatric Association Scientific meeting, whereby children with bedwetting were offered a new treatment method of shorter duration with two weekly clinic visits. The children were treated with one of two different types of bedwetting alarms (some also used medication). The outcome was excellent with nearly 95% achieving dryness for at least 14 days in a row and 70-85% remaining dry for over 6 months, independent of the type of alarm used. Further studies confirm the effectiveness in other clinical scenarios with 86% of children with predominantly mono-symptomatic enuresis achieving Initial Success (=14 dry nights in a row) with a 15% relapse rate.This SITTA method is now being used as an Irish standard in many bedwetting clinics and in the newly created Paediatric Continence Clinic in the new Paediatric Outpatients building in Cavan Town (Breffni Building) and in my Envidius Private Clinic.
