Classification:
A-Primary Idiopathic NS (INS): majority
Accounting for 90% of NS in child. mainly discussed.
Unknown cause
B-Secondary NS:
Include post streptococcal glomerulonephritis and SLE

1.The construction of the
glomerular basement memb-
rane has changed.
2.The loss of the negative
charges on the GBM.

Pathophysiology:
The Main Trigger Of primary Nephrotic Syndrome and Fundamental and highly important change of
pathophysiology :-
Proteinuria
![Page 6: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Pathogenesis of Proteinuria:-
Increase glomerular permeability for proteins due to loss of negative charged glycoprotein
Degree of protineuria:- Mild less than 0.5g/m2/day Moderate 0.5 – 2g/m2/day Sever more than 2g/m2/day
Type of proteinuria:- A-Selective proteinuria: where proteins of low molecular
weight .such as albumin, are excreted more readily than protein of HMW
B-Non selective : LMW+HMW are lost in urine

How many pathological types causes nephrotic syndrome?

Investigations:-
1-Urine analysis:-
A-Proteinuria : 3-4 + SELECTIVE.
b-24 urine collection for protein>40mg/m2/hr for children
c- volume: oliguria (during stage of edema formation)
d-Microscopically:-
microscopic hematuria 20%, large number of hyaline cast
![Page 11: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Investigations:-
2-Blood: A-serum protein: decrease >5.5gm/dL , Albumin levels are
low (< 2.5gm/dL).
B-Serum cholesterol and triglycerides: Cholesterol > 5.7mmol/L (220mg/dl).
C-- ESR↑ > 100mm/hr during activity phase
. 3.Serum complemen: Vary with clinical type.
4.Renal function
.

Kidney Biopsy:-
Considered in: 1-Secondary N.S
2-Steroid resistant N.S
3- Gross Hematuria
4-Hypertension
5- Renal Impairment
![Page 13: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Complications of NS:-
1-Infections:Infections is a major complication in children with NS. It frequently trigger relapses.
Nephrotic pt are liable to infection because :A-loss of immunoglobins in urine.B-the edema fluid act as a culture medium.C-use immunosuppressive agents.
D- malnutrition
The common infection : URI, peritonitis, cellulitis and UTI may be seen.
Organisms: encapsulated (Pneumococci, H.influenzae), Gram negative (e.g E.coli
![Page 14: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Complication…..
2-Hypercoagulability (Thrombosis). Hypercoagulability of the blood leading to venous or arterial
thrombosis: Hypercoagulability in Nephrotic syndrome caused by:
1-Higher concentration of I,II, V,VII,VIII,X and fibrinogen
2- Lower level of anticoagulant substance: antithrombin III
3-decrease fibrinolysis.
4-Higher blood viscosity
5- Increased platelet aggregation
6- Overaggressive diuresis

3-ARF: pre-renal and renal
4- cardiovascular disease :-Hyperlipidemia, may be a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
5-Hypovolemic shock
6-Others: growth retardation, malnutrition, adrenal cortical insufficiency
![Page 16: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Management of NS:
General (non-specific )
Corticosteroid therapy
![Page 17: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
General therapy:-
Normal diet with adequate caloriesNo added salt to the diet whn child has
edemaAvoiding infection: very important.Penicillin V is recommended at diagnosis
and during relapses Severe edema: Restricting fluid intake
Human albumin (20-25%)- symptomatic
grossly edematous together with IV frusemide(diurresis)
![Page 18: Nephrotic syndrome 1](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052412/559667961a28ab79128b45be/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
GENERAL ADVICE
Home urine albumin monitoring (1st urine specimen)
Consult doctors if 1)albuminuria >= 2+ for consecutives day or out 7 days.
2)edematous
Immunisation
on corticosteroid treatment and within 6 weeks (killed vacines)
after 6 weeks cessation (live vaccine)
pneumococcal vaccine

Corticosteroid—prednisone therapy:-
REMISSION : Urine dipstick trace or nil for 3 consecutives days within 28 days.
RELAPSE: Urine albumin excretion > 40mg /m2/hour or urine dipstick >= 2+ for 3 consecutives days
FREQUENT RELAPSES : >= 2 Relapses within 6 month of initial diagnosis or >= 4 relapses within 12 month periods
STEROID DEPENDENT NEPHROTIC SYNDROME : >= 2 Consecutives relapses occuring during steroid taper or within 14days of cessation of steroid
