    -40 mg/m/alternate day for weeks

    then stop

    2. RELAPSE

    Reinduce (2), then taper & keeplow dose alternate day

    MINIMAL CHANGES DISEASES.

    Relatively benign disorder.

    Most frequent cause of NS in children(1-7 years).

    Clinical features

    Insidious development of NS.

    No hypertension and preserved renal function. Good prognosis.

    NEPHRITIC SYNDROME Nephritic syndrome is defined by:

    hematuria (usually with dysmorphic RBCs), and hypertension,

    oliguria(400 mL/day of urine).

    Uremia- due to retention of waste products

    Azotemia (elevated blood nitrogen)

    Or come with symptom of underlying problems Triad of sinusitis, pulmonary infiltrates, and nephritis suggesting Wegener

    granulomatosis

    Nausea/vomiting, abdominal pain, and purpura observed with Henoch-Schnlein purpura

    Arthralgias associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE)

    Hemoptysis occurring with Goodpasture syndrome or idiopathic

    progressive glomerulonephritis Skin rashes observed with a hypersensitivity vasculitis or systemic lupus

    erythematosus; also possibly due to the purpura that can occur inhypersensitivity vasculitis, cryoglobulinemia, and Henoch-Schnleinpurpura

    Causes of Nephritic Syndrome

    Focal SegmentalGlomerulosclerosis Lesion characterized histologically by sclerosis.

    Pathogenesis is unknown.

    Clinical course:

    Little tendency for spontaneous remission ofidiopathic FSGS.

    Poor respond to steroid therapy.

    Bad prognosis.

    Management Nephrotic Nephritic

    Normal protein diet No added salt when edema Penicillin V at diag. & during

    relapse esp. with gross

    edema Diuretics is not necessary

    when steroid responsive Human albumin-in grossly

    edematous

    Hemodynamic status -Check for sign ofhypervolamia orhypovolaemia

    Strict monitoring-luid intake,

    urine output, daily weight, BP

    Fluid restriction during

    oligouric phase

    Diuretics

    Look for complication of post

    Nephrotic vs nephritic

    Nephrotic syndrome:

    1. Massive proteinuria2. Hypoalbuminemia

    3. Edema4. Hyperlipidemia/hyperlipiduria

    Nephritic syndrome:

    1. Hematuria

    2. Oliguria3. Azotemia4. Hypertension
