WakeDry Nocturnal Bed Wetting Alarm - 1 Unit
Nocturnal enuresis (nighttime bedwetting) can deeply impact a child's confidence, emotional well-being, and social development. While many families in Tanzania traditionally wait for children to outgrow the phase, active intervention is highly effective. The WakeDry Bed Wetting Alarm is a clinically proven behavioral training device. By sounding an alarm at the very first drop of moisture, it conditions the child's brain to wake up to a full bladder, ultimately curing the underlying cause without relying on pharmaceutical medications.
How to Use / Operate
Attach the moisture sensor securely to the outside of the child's underwear at the point where urination occurs first. Clip the small alarm unit to the child's pajama top near the shoulder. When the alarm sounds in the night, the child must wake up, turn off the alarm, and immediately go to the bathroom to finish urinating.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the WakeDry Alarm used for?
It is a psychological conditioning tool used to treat chronic bedwetting in children older than 5 years by teaching them to wake up when their bladder is full.
How long does the training take?
Success requires consistency. While some children respond in a few weeks, it typically requires 2 to 4 months of strict nightly usage to establish the permanent brain-bladder connection.
Important Clinical Considerations
Parents must be highly involved during the first few weeks, waking up when the alarm sounds to physically guide the child to the bathroom, as deep sleepers may initially ignore the noise. The sensor must be washed with soap and water and dried completely after every triggering to prevent false alarms.
