The treatment process for nephrotic syndrome is difficult and lengthy, and it is difficult for children to bear the disease psychologically and physiologically. Parents and medical staff need to pay more love and patience, and must take good care of the children's kidney disease. So, what are the daily care and treatment precautions for children with nephrotic syndrome? The editor will introduce you one by one.
Nursing care for children with nephrotic syndrome:
1、 Medication: During the stable period of the patient's condition, medication is generally required. Parents and healthcare professionals should check their children's medication intake daily. Children's urine volume increases, which requires special attention from teachers. During classes or activities, children should be reminded to go to the bathroom in a timely manner to avoid unnecessary pain to the child.
2、 Diet: Due to the large amount of protein excreted from the urine, the body often experiences protein deficiency, so supplementation should be provided from the diet. The recipe of a sick child should contain sufficient protein, such as fish, lean meat, poultry, soy products, etc. In addition, the intake of salt should also be limited, generally not exceeding 2 grams per day. If the kindergarten lacks the conditions to prepare this special diet for children, parents can bring it on their own and heat it up during meals to make the children eat delicious and full. There is no need to limit their dietary intake.
3、 Activity: Due to the tendency of children to develop respiratory infections, strict restrictions should be placed on their activity levels. You can play quiet games and avoid strenuous exercise to prevent children from getting tired and worsening their condition.
4、 Clothing and sleep: Children should be promptly added or removed clothing according to weather changes, and pay attention to keeping warm. During a nap, more attention should be given to ensure that the child has sufficient sleep.
5、 Mastering the epidemic and avoiding cross infection: Once other infectious sources of diseases appear in kindergartens, children with kidney disease should be promptly isolated or sent home for cultivation to prevent infection with other infectious diseases.
Daily diet, activities, clothing, sleep, and other factors can all affect the recovery of a child's condition. Parents and medical staff must understand the characteristics of pediatric nephrotic syndrome and provide corresponding care based on individual conditions. Suffering from kidney disease may affect a child's life. Therefore, everyone must take good care of their children and try to avoid the occurrence of kidney disease.
