Disease relevance of Toilet Training

CONCLUSIONS: In children with encopresis, early difficult defecation, previous treatment for constipation, and early initiation of toilet training were less common than expected [1].

High impact information on Toilet Training

Bladder regimen, including early toilet training from the age of 1.5 years and detrusor relaxant drugs for the treatment of incontinence from ages 4 to 6 years, was introduced to all patients [2].
CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 20% of patients with vesicoureteral reflux diagnosed before 6 months of age demonstrated dysfunctional voiding after the age of toilet training [3].
Being an extension of a previous study [Am. J. Mental Retard. 106 (2001) 209], the significant decrease of the mean number of toileting accidents in function of initiating the procedure offers a further contribution to the validity of response restriction as a method for toilet training [4].
