Objective: The purpose of this research work is to investigate urodynamic change and treatment of the mental voiding of frequent in children.

Methods: We tested 38 children (22 boys, 16 girls, mean age 6.3 years) with voiding of frequent only daytime to assess the function of lower urinary tract for storing and voiding. Voiding cystourethrography, Cystometry and Pressure/Flow/EMG were calculated; in addition, 16 cases were repeated with Cystometry after thirty minutes.

Results: During the period of storing, 89.5% of patients were dysfunction of bladder, the urodynamic finding were categorized into 5 main patterns, DI 12; lower compliance 6; DI with lower compliance 16; increase of bladder sense 20; small capacity 14. Only 2 cases (5.3%) were urethra sphincter excess activity. After measurement of urodynamic, the symptom of 84.2% cases disappeared or impaired. Others were cured by anticholinergic medication.

Conclusion: It has been demonstrated that DI is the major pathophysiology of voiding of frequent. Urodynamic measurement can not only estimate the function of detrusor and urethra sphincter, but also train the ability that bladder store urine. Drug is only assistant treatment.
