The bell-and-pad technique is a behavioral method used primarily in the treatment of bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) in children. It involves placing a moisture-sensitive pad under a child's bed sheets, which is connected to an alarm or bell. When the child begins to wet the bed, the pad detects the moisture, triggering the alarm to wake the child, thereby encouraging them to associate the sensation of a full bladder with waking up and using the bathroom. Over time, this technique helps to condition the child to respond to their body's signals.
