Disparities In Dialysis In Children HYPOTHESIS:  Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with a pediatric incidence ranging from 19.3% to 24.1%.  Treatment of pediatric AKI  is a source of debate in varying geographical regions. Currently CRRT is the treatment for pediatric AKI, but limitations due to cost and accessibility force use of adult equipment and other therapeutic options such as peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD). It was hypothesized that more cost-effective measures would likely be used in developing countries due to lesser resource availability. METHODS:  A 26-question internet-based survey was distributed to 650 pediatric Nephrologists. There was a response rate of 34.3% (223 responses). The survey was distributed via pedneph and pcrrt email servers, inquiring about demographics, technology, resources, pediatric-specific supplies, and preference in renal replacement therapy (RRT) in pediatric AKI. Th...

The recent worldwide pandemic of COVID-19 has had a detrimental worldwide impact on people of all ages. Although data from China and the United States indicate that pediatric cases often have a mild course and are less severe in comparison to adults, there have been several cases of kidney failure and multisystem inflammatory syndrome reported. As such, we believe that the world should be prepared if the severity of cases begins to further increase within the pediatric population. Therefore, we provide here a position paper centered on emergency preparation with resource allocation for critical COVID-19 cases within the pediatric population, specifically where renal conditions worsen due to the onset of AKI.

  Testing For And Diagnosing Nephrotic Syndrome In Children Nephrotic syndrome explained: Nephrotic syndrome is a condition which affects the kidneys and the miniscule filtering system within it, called the nephrons. There is damage to these structures as a result of various reasons, and mostly in children the cause remains unknown, also known as idiopathic  nephrotic syndrome . As a result of this damage, the kidney starts to filter less of the substances that it usually helps our body get rid of, and it also starts to filter in excess certain substances which are useful to the body. Therefore an affected child usually presents with certain characteristic symptoms, including, swelling of the tissues, especially in the face and abdomen. Diagnosing the condition: It is when a child presents with this characteristic symptom of swelling in most areas of the body, that your doctor/pediatrician will suspect  nephrotic syndrome . It is very important that the diagnosis is made ...

  Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis In Pediatric Nephrotic Syndrome A 2-year-old girl presented to the emergency room with recurrent seizures. The child had been diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome in the previous 2 weeks (serum albumin, 1.5 g/dl; serum creatinine, 0.4 mg/dl) and had been convulsing on and off since the week before presentation. Oral prednisolone (2 mg/kg per day) had been started for 2 weeks with no response. There was no metabolic cause of seizures with normal serum ammonia, blood gas, and serum electrolyte levels.

  Background Neonatal acute kidney injury (AKI) is common in neonatal intensive care units (NICU) and leads to worse outcomes. Stratifying neonates into an “at risk” category allows health care providers to objectively recognize opportunities for improvements in quality of care. Methods The “Neonatal AKI Risk Prediction Scoring” was devised as the “STARZ [Sethi, Tibrewal, Agrawal, Raina, waZir]” Score. The STARZ score was derived from our prior multicentre study analysing risk factors for AKI in neonates admitted to the NICU. This tool includes 10 variables with a total score ranging from 0 to 100 and a cut-off score of 31.5. In the present study, the scoring model has been validated in our multicentre cohort of 744 neonates. Results In the validation cohort, this scoring model had sensitivity of 82.1%, specificity 91.7%, positive predictive value 81.2%, negative predictive value 92.2% and accuracy 88.8%. Based on the STARZ cut-off score of ≥ 31.5, an area under the receiver o...

 Transplant In Children Treatment by   -  Dr. Sidharth Kumar Sethi Recent literature has endorsed favorable outcomes following ABOi  kidney transplantation in pediatric  population. Nevertheless, reluctance to pursue an ABOi still remains pervasive. This could be ascribed to various legitimate reasons, namely less extensive pediatric ABOi data, technical difficulties encountered during PP, cost restraints, and concerns regarding higher rates of antibody-mediated rejection, infectious complications, and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder as compared to adults. However, given the similar excellent outcomes of both ABOi and ABOc  kidney transplantation , clinicians should consider this option sooner if a compatible donor or swap is not available. Here, we describe the outcomes of three pediatric ABOi performed at our institute in India (from 2014 till now), wherein distinct apheresis modalities had been employed in each desensitization protocol,...

  Understanding Urinary Tract Infections This topic is intended to give the parents and caregivers a comprehensive overview of urinary tract infections (UTIs)-causes, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and potential future complications, so that they can lend a helping hand in building a better kidney health for their children. What does the urinary tract consist of? KIDNEYS  -These are two bean shaped organs situated on either side of our back. They filter the blood off the wastes and produce urine. URETERS  -These are two tubes through which urine from the kidney travels down. URINARY BLADDER  –It is a bag which stores urine coming in from the ureters. URETHRA  –It is a thin tube from which urine comes out of the body whenever we urinate. What’s a uti? A UTI occurs when bacteria (germs) invade the urinary tract through infected urine. Overall, UTI is commoner in girls than boys, except in first year of life as structural problems of urinary tract at birt...

  Nephrotic Syndrome Most people have two kidneys, one on either side of the body just beneath the ribcage. Healthy kidneys filter the blood and allow small particles of waste products and water to be excreted as urine. Kidneys also play important role in the control of blood pressure, maintenance of bone health and formation of red blood cells. What is nephrotic syndrome? Nephrotic syndrome  occurs when the kidneys leak large amounts of protein (especially albumin) into the urine. It is these proteins which is mainly responsible for holding water in the blood vessels, and when they are lost in urine, their level decreases in the blood which causes the water to come out of the blood vessels and cause swelling (edema). What causes Nephrotic Syndrome? In most cases, the exact cause of  nephrotic syndrome  is not known. There is no relationship with diet or socioeconomic status of the family. It is non-infectious and does not transfer to other family members . What are ...
