Pediatric Nephrology
Pediatric Nephrology is the field of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of kidney-related medical issues in children. A pediatric nephrologist has the skills and experience to diagnose and treat kidney diseases, urinary tract problems, kidney stones, etc. in children. It means a pediatric nephrologist is a doctor who has trained in pediatrics and then trained to take care of children affected by kidney-related problems.
When Should You Visit a Pediatric Nephrologist?
The functioning of the kidneys is measured using EGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate). The EGFR number is determined based on age, sex, race, and body type. If the EGFR of your child is less than 30, you should consult a pediatric nephrologist immediately. Both heart and kidneys have a connection and hence kidney disease can also lead to heart disease. To prevent serious complications, you should talk to your doctor right away.
