There were some devices designed to issue an alarm if water hits them. The idea was to try and use negative reinforcement to help the person train their body/mind to not wet at night in order to get a full night of sleep.

I think some people still use these devices. I think another result was just to wake the person up before they pee a whole lot.

Yeah, in my searches I found more alarms. I did notice that alarms are listed too. It makes me wonder if they had ones that gave a 'mild' shock. By the way, down in a sub-comment on your other comment I posted a link to a product still being sold today that might give some idea of what was in this. Maybe.

The ***danger*** of catching cold and **infectious** rashes...

***Doctors agree*** bedwetting can **cause** nervousness, stuttering and emotional disturbances in children very often seriously affecting their future and character making them "psychological cripples"

But now the disgrace and ***danger*** can very easily be a thing of the past with amazing new Dry Tabs.

Heh I had fun underlining and bolding there ;-)
