Recent life stressors<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rationale:<\/strong> <strong>Life stressors <\/strong>and <strong>life changes<\/strong>, such as birth of a sibling, family conflict, or separation from a family guardian can all trigger <strong>secondary enuresis<\/strong>. Also, other factors that lead to <strong>physiologic stress<\/strong>, like anxiety, low socioeconomic status, and sexual abuse, could also trigger secondary enuresis. The nurse knows that this client has secondary enuresis because the child is 8 years old. <strong>The nurse should investigate sources of stress or recent changes in the client\u2019s life.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Main_Takeaway\"><\/span>Main Takeaway<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact cause of <strong>primary enuresis<\/strong> remains unknown, but some theories suggest that this condition could be associated with <strong>anxiety <\/strong>and <strong>neurodevelopmental problems<\/strong>, <strong>slow maturation, <\/strong>or <strong>hyperactivity of the bladder<\/strong>. On the other hand, common <strong>causes of secondary enuresis<\/strong> include <strong>physiological stress<\/strong>, like <strong>sexual abuse; central diabetes insipidus; <\/strong>and <strong>medications, <\/strong>such as <strong>valproate<\/strong>, which is used to treat <strong>epilepsy <\/strong>in children. Other causes of secondary enuresis include <strong>urinary tract infections <\/strong>and <strong>constipation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Incorrect_Answer_Explanations\"><\/span>Incorrect Answer Explanations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A. Recent involvement in sports<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rationale:<\/strong> Involvement in sports is not associated with causative factors of enuresis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>B. Recent changes in appetite<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rationale:<\/strong> Changes in appetite are not directly associated with secondary enuresis. Rather, <strong>the nurse should ask a more direct question<\/strong> (i.e. addressing bowel habits), which may be directly linked to enuresis. <strong>Constipation<\/strong>, for example, may put <strong>pressure on the bladder<\/strong> and lead to enuresis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>D. Recent close contact with other children<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Rationale:<\/strong> <strong>Enuresis is not contagious<\/strong>; therefore, it is unlikely that close contact with other children would cause this client to develop enuresis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Want_to_learn_more_about_this_topic\"><\/span>Want to learn more about this topic?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Watch the Osmosis video:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/learn\/Enuresis:_Nursing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Enuresis: Nursing<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/plans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/Blog_Display_Ads_GENERAL2_2023.png?w=700\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/Blog_Display_Ads_GENERAL2_2023.png 700w, https:\/\/www.osmosis.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/02\/Blog_Display_Ads_GENERAL2_2023.png?resize=300,107 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Try <strong>Osmosis from Elsevier<\/strong> today!
