Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Subjective report of change in urinary incontinence measured by questionnaire

    Baseline and 3-6-12 months + follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) measured by questionnaire

    baseline and 6-12 months

  • Drinking behaviour measured by drinking and voiding charts

    Baseline and 6-12 months

  • Constipation/fecal incontinence measured by ROME III criteria

    Baseline and 6-12 months

  • voiding variables and pelvic floor activity during micturition measured by uroflow/EMG

    Baseline and 3-6-12 months

Study Arms (3)

Children with CP - Therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

Children receive incontinence treatment during one year, after which a follow-up period of 6 months will be applied. Intervention includes standard urotherapy with or without pharmacotherapy/specific urotherapy

Other: urotherapy with or without pharmacotherapy

Children with CP - Control

NO INTERVENTION

Children are followed for 6 months, not receiving any treatment. After this follow-up period, children also receive incontinence treatment for 6 months.

Children without CP

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Children receive incontinence treatment during 1 year. Intervention includes standard urotherapy with or without pharmacotherapy/specific urotherapy

Other: urotherapy with or without pharmacotherapy

Interventions

Individualized
