Nocturnal enuresis - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocturnal_enuresis
Nocturnal enuresis or nighttime urinary incontinence, commonly called bedwetting or sleepwetting, is involuntary urination while asleep after the age at which bladder control usually occurs. Nocturnal enuresis is considered primary (PNE) when a child has not yet had a prolonged period of being dry. Secondary nocturnal enuresis (SNE) is when a child or adult begins wetting again after having stayed dry.
Bedwetting is the most common childhood urologic complaint and one of the most common pediatric-health issues. Most bedwetting, however, is just a developmental delay—not an emotional problem or physical illness. Only a small percentage (5% to 10%) of bedwetting cases are caused by specific medical situations. Bedwetting is frequently associated with a family history of the condition.
Most girls can stay dry by age six and most boys stay dry by age seven. By ten years old, 95% of children are dry at night. Studies place adult bedwetting rates at between 0.5% to 2.3%.
Treatments range from behavioral-based options such as bedwetting alarms, to medication such as hormone replacement, and even surgery such as urethral enlargement. Since most bedwetting is simply a developmental delay, most treatment plans aim to protect or improve self-esteem. Bedwetting children and adults can suffer emotional stress or psychological injury if they feel shamed by the condition. Treatment guidelines recommend that the physician counsel the parents, warning about psychological damage caused by pressure, shaming, or punishment for a condition children cannot control.

Currently, a 6 years old boy has been being treated by KOSA.
He couldn't hold bladder at all and the time gap between urination was pretty much two hours or shorter.
He even used to wet his pants several times during day time.
Although his father used to set the alarm to wake him up in order not to make an incident, he used to wet bed pretty much every night.
Subduing BL60, KI2 and LR2 was given to him for four times and the time gap between urination has been extended to 6 hours.
He very seldom makes an incidence now.
Also, as a KOSA's typical side effect, he has become to be smarter that he can play video games much better and assemble challenging Lego blocks much quicker.
