Anureses

/ən.jʊˈriː.siz/ noun

Definition

The plural of anuresis; multiple instances or cases of the inability to urinate or abnormal urine retention.

Etymology

Plural of 'anuresis', from Greek 'a-' (without) plus 'ouresis' (urination); '-es' is the plural form for medical terms.

Kelly Says

Doctors tracking anureses in hospital patients are looking for a serious problem—kidney failure, blockages, or severe dehydration—so identifying multiple cases helps them spot patterns that could save lives.
