Nephrotic syndrome is a nonspecific renal disorder can be primary or secondary. For adults, timely and accurate diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome allows patients to have a good handle on your illness condition. Therefore, here we will mainly present the diagnosis and management of nephrotic syndrome in adults.
The diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome in adults
Accurate diagnosis of nephrotic syndrome in adults is based on advanced medical evidence relates to:
1. Urine test routine
For an adult with nephrotic syndrome, massive protein (more than 3.5g / 24h) was found in his urine through urinalysis. For this test, patients need to collect urine samples over 24 hours for an accurate measurement of protein in the urine.
2. Blood Routine
In nephrotic syndrome, as many proteins are filtered into the urine, so that low protein levels were found through routine blood tests. Protein loss is generally associated with increased blood triglycerides. Furthermore, serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen can also be measured to assess the overall renal function.
3. Renal Biopsy
Renal biopsy is a medical procedure in which a small sample of kidney is removed from the body for examination and this test can help you learn show our kidneys are damaged and how well our now renal function.
Management of nephrotic syndrome in adults
Due to differences in disease condition, nephrotic syndrome patients need to take various measures to manage their disease. And these measures typically include:
1. Fluid
Fluid intake is a point of nephrotic syndrome patients should pay attention. The high fluid intake exacerbates the edema and kidney condition (See our doctors online about the right amount of liquid you) deteriorate.
Also, if the edema is severe enough, diuretics can be used to send this symptom.
2. Nutrition
Protein is an essential nourishment of our bodies. For an adult with nephrotic syndrome, when a large amount of protein lost in the urine, the replacement of certain proteins that the body will be very necessary. However, high protein intake will bring additional burden on the kidney, which is very harmful. For this reason, leans on the amount of protein ingested daily is very necessary for nephrotic syndromes.
3. Make sure your blood pressure and blood sugar are in the normal range
Persistent high blood pressure or high blood sugar can damage the kidneys directly, so to ensure that the nephrotic syndrome can be effectively controlled to maintain tight control of blood pressure and blood sugar is very essential.
4. Repair of injured renal cell intrinsic to improve renal function
Renal tissues dead can not be revived, but this does not mean intrinsic renal cell injuries can not be repaired. Medical studies show that effective ingredients in Micro-Chinese Medicine have the ability to activate injured kidney cells and help them recover. Therefore, Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is highly recommended for adults with nephrotic syndrome for their injuries repaired kidney cells.
