Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Nocturia is a common symptom in women which has profound negative impact on the quality of life. With the increase in aging population, nocturia is becoming an important clinical problem. A proper understanding of cardio-respiratory, metabolic, and neurological patho-physiology of nocturia is imperative for appropriate management of nocturia. When managing a patient with nocturia it is important to evaluate the patient as a whole rather than from urological perspective only. In this article we attempt to discuss the definition, etiology, clinical features and management of nocturia so that a comprehensive approach to management can be adopted when faced with a woman complaining of nocturia. |
