Preface. This book is a clinical manual on the treatment of pediatric enuresis or bed-wetting. It is based on my research and translation of the Chinese medical literature, my studies with numerous Chinese medical pediatricians in China over a number of years, and my own clinical practice of Chinese medical pediatrics in Canada. For 2,000 years, Chinese medical practitioners have treated pediatric enuresis using a variety of modalities, and, over the last 25 years, clinical trials have proven that these treatments are effective for the cure of this condition. Modern Western medicine, on the other hand, does not have an effective treatment for this disease, and, in terms of biomedical pathophysiology, there is no known cause in 97-99% of cases of pediatric bed-wetting. In fact, within the Chinese medical literature, there is far more research on these traditional Chinese medical treatments for this condition than there is in English on the modern Western medical pharmaceuticals used to treat this disease. Unfortunately for practitioners of Chinese medicine and their patients, prior to this book, this information was only available in the Chinese language. I have also chosen to write about pediatric enuresis because it is easy to determine how effective the treatment has been. Therefore, the information in this book can be used for further research on the traditional Chinese medical (TCM) treatment of this disorder in the non-Chinese setting. I trust this book will help Chinese medicine grow and flourish in years to come and help establish TCM as an effective treatment for enuresis outside of China. ...
