Due to weak immunity of children, they are always infected by virus or have
other disease which may trigger an acute nephrotic syndrome. How to diagnose the
acute nephrotic syndrome in children with focal sclerosis?
In order to make sure whether children have nephrotic syndrome, they should
have some tests, such as a 24-hour collection of urine. One of symptoms of
nephrotic syndrome is a great amount of protein in urine. By using the 24-hour
collection of urine can measure the precise protein and other substances in the
urine.
A blood sample is needed to know how well the kidneys function. In the
healthy people, creatinine level and BUN level are in the normal range. However,
if their kidney tissues are damaged due to acute nephrotic syndrome in children,
they will have a high level of creatinine and BUN. Furthermore, low levels of
protein can be tested in the blood for much loss of protein through urine.
Furthermore, the children have a swelling in their face and limps. Some
people may make a mistake their swelling is fat. If you observe carefully, you
can find the difference between the obesity and swelling. Due to swelling, they
will have a pit after their tissues are pressed. Besides, children’s weight
gains from excess water.
How to treat acute nephrotic syndrome in children with focal sclerosis?
After they are diagnosed with acute nephrotic syndrome, we should know which
step they are in. focal sclerosis is the description for the step. Kidneys
contain millions of glomeruli which are the main tissues to filter blood. Focal
sclerosis means that less than 50% of glomeruli are damaged by renal
inflammation. If they do not have an effective treatment, more glomeruli will be
lost.
Thereby parents should grab the best time to seek a better and suitable
therapy for their children. Hormone therapy is not suggested to take, for it can
bring about many side effects to your children. For example, children may have
hypocalcemia, osteoporosis, obesity and so on.
