DIETARY ADVICE: A balanced diet adequate in proteins and
calories is recommended foods high in sodium avoided High protein diet Edema no added salt
Treatment of infections Parent Education Can attend school Can participate in physical activities as tolerated

If significant edema Diuretics + Aldosterone antagonist ( Fursemide, spironolactone ) Salt restriction DIURETICS INDICATIONS: Severe symptomatic edema Steroid toxicity or steroid contraindicated
Q.Best diuretic in Nephrotic Syndrome?

ROLE OF INTRAVENOUS ALBUMIN
INDICATIONS: Signs of hypovolemia Sever oedema
DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION: I/V salt poor 25% albumin infusion 0.5-1 gm/kg/doze over 6-12 hrs followed
by Frusemide 1-2 mg/kg/dose (I/V)
![Page 26: Nephrotic syndrome in children. for under graduates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5aaa85d97f8b9af9198b4687/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
CORTICOSTEROID THERAPY: DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION:(after a -ve PPD test)
Prednisolone 60mg/m2 /day (max 80mg) single daily dose {or 2-3 dd} for 6 wks consecutively
After the initial 6-wk course, prednisone dose tapered to 40 mg/m2/day given every other day as a single daily dose for at least 4 wk.
Alternate-day dose then slowly tapered→discontinued over next 1-2 mo
![Page 27: Nephrotic syndrome in children. for under graduates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5aaa85d97f8b9af9198b4687/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
REPONSE TO STEROID:80-90% of children respond within 3 wk
10% respond by first week 70% by second week 85% by third week 92% by forth week
Response means clinical remission, diuresis, and urine trace or negative for protein for 3 consecutive days
Who respond to prednisone therapy do so within the first 5 wk of treatment.
![Page 28: Nephrotic syndrome in children. for under graduates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5aaa85d97f8b9af9198b4687/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
STEROID DEPENDENT: Patients who relapse while on alternate-day steroid therapy or within 28 days of completing a successful course of prednisone therapy
FREQUENT RELAPSERS: Patients who respond well to prednisone therapy but relapse ≥4 times in a 12-mo period
INFREQUENT RELAPSERS :3 or less relapses per yr
STEROID RESISTANT: Fail to respond to corticosteroid therapy within 8 wks
Children who continue to have proteinuria (2+ or greater) Diagnostic renal biopsy should be performed
![Page 29: Nephrotic syndrome in children. for under graduates](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062317/5aaa85d97f8b9af9198b4687/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Relapses should be treated with 60 mg/m2/day (80 mg daily max) in a single am dose until the child enters remission (urine trace or negative for protein for 3 consecutive days)
The prednisone dose is then changed to alternate-day dosing as noted with initial therapy, and gradually tapered over 4-8 wk.
