Abstract

Enuresis is a problem that affects a significant percentage of pediatric population from 5 to 16 years of age, and even young adults, having multifactorial causes both from the point of view of its origin and its perpetuity over time. Covid-19 Pandemic motivates social isolation as a control tool and, in certain countries, a quarantine that affects boys and girls general habits, producing circadian rhythm lack of control, based on time dysregulation and anxiety in high school. This undoubtedly threatens enuresis favorable evolution and, as quarantine continues, it is worse. In Argentina, quarantine exceeded 100 days, especially in the geographic region with highest population density, without being able to measure the impact in terms of enuresis. That is why we propose tools to try to reduce the isolation effects and quarantine in order not to deepen the problem or avoid relapses.
