  Nephrotic syndrome is a chronic disease in children. Eighty percent of nephrotic syndrome cases occur in preschool-aged children (less than 6 years of age). Nephrotic syndrome requires long-term treatment and can be recurrent. The treatment of nephrotic syndrome includes medication and nutritional therapy. Children should maintain a low salt diet with no fish sauce added, and they should increase their protein intake. Furthermore, children should take medications regularly, and they should not reduce or stop taking medication without consulting a doctor. Moreover, infection prevention must be controlled carefully. The most common medical problem is lack of knowledge and self-care practice, both of which cause complications and may lead to relapse of the disease. […] The concept of family participation plays an important role in promoting the health of children with nephrotic syndrome and their families to continuity of care, recurrent prevention, and slow progression of the disease to end-stage renal failure.

  You have probably worked with many patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), but nephrotic syndrome is not as common. Nephrotic syndrome is another condition of impaired renal function, although it is not recognized as a specific disease state. Understanding the specifics of this syndrome and how it might impact nutritional recommendations is beneficial for the RDN and can improve overall care with these patients. […] The clinical presentation of the nephrotic syndrome may vary slightly from CKD. Symptoms of this disorder are proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and fluid retention or edema. A combination of medications and diet can support treatment in these patients. […] Avoid a high protein diet. Too much protein can worsen urinary protein loss. Individual protein needs should be similar to those recommended for each CKD stage. For individuals with early phases of CKD, an average of 0.8 g/kg body weight is recommended.

  Monitor total sodium intake. Limiting total salt intake is also recommended in the patient with nephrotic syndrome. Goals should include no more than 2,300 milligrams per day to prevent edema and to maintain a healthy blood pressure. […] Balance electrolytes to maintain levels within normal limits. Changes with electrolytes such as potassium may occur as part of the nephrotic syndrome. Adjusting dietary intake to help maintain electrolytes within normal range may be needed. […] Consider a “heart healthy” diet. With an increased risk for hyperlipidemia due to the nephrotic syndrome, total dietary fat should be evaluated. Limiting total fat intake and avoiding foods high in saturated fat and trans fat is encouraged. […] Maintain goal vitamin D levels. Tracking vitamin D level in the patient with impaired kidney function is important because of the many roles this vitamin plays in the body. If insufficient, supplementation should be provided with cholecalciferol or ergocalciferol.

  Nephrotic syndrome in children is most often treated with medicines. […] Corticosteroids, or steroids, are the medicines most often used to treat children with primary nephrotic syndrome. These medicines suppress the immune system, reduce the amount of protein passed into the urine, and decrease swelling. […] Health care professionals may also prescribe other medicines to help your child manage the symptoms and complications of nephrotic syndrome. Examples include angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACEs) inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) to lower blood pressure and help reduce protein loss, diuretics, or water pills, to reduce swelling by helping the kidneys remove extra fluid from the blood, statins to lower cholesterol, and blood thinners to treat blood clots. […] Children with nephrotic syndrome should get the pneumococcal vaccine and yearly flu shots to prevent viral and bacterial infections.

  Patient education: The nephrotic syndrome (Beyond the Basics) […] This article will review the causes, evaluation, and treatment of nephrotic syndrome. […] The first line of treatment in nephrotic syndrome is to treat the underlying cause, if the cause is found. In addition, almost all patients are given an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), which lower blood pressure, prevent worsening of kidney disease, and reduce the amount of protein excreted in the urine. […] In addition to treating the underlying cause of nephrotic syndrome, the signs and symptoms of nephrotic syndrome can sometimes be treated. […] An ACE inhibitor or ARB is often recommended to reduce the loss of protein in the urine (proteinuria). An SGLT2 inhibitor may be added to the ACE inhibitor or ARB to further lower protein in the urine.

  Swelling in the lower legs (edema) and collection of fluid in the abdomen (ascites) can occur in people with nephrotic syndrome. Edema and ascites often improve in people who follow a low-sodium diet and take a „water pill” (diuretic). […] High cholesterol levels are often seen in people with nephrotic syndrome. If nephrotic syndrome persists, treatment is needed to lower blood cholesterol. Most people are initially treated with a cholesterol-lowering medication called a statin. […] If a blood clot forms in a blood vessel, treatment may include a blood thinner, such as warfarin (brand name: Jantoven), for as long as the nephrotic syndrome persists.

  Nephrotic syndrome is a condition that causes the kidneys to leak large amounts of protein into the urine. This can lead to a range of problems, including swelling of body tissues and a greater chance of catching infections. […] The main treatment for nephrotic syndrome is steroids, but additional treatments may also be used if a child develops significant side effects. […] Most children have relapses until their late teens and need to take steroids when these occur. […] Children diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome for the first time are normally prescribed at least a 4-week course of the steroid medicine prednisolone, followed by a smaller dose every other day for 4 more weeks. This stops protein leaking from your child’s kidneys into their urine. […] If your child has been diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome, you’ll need to monitor their condition on a daily basis to check for signs of relapses.
