What do Pediatric Nephrologists do?
Pediatric nephrologists are medical doctors who specialize in diagnosing and treating kidney-related diseases and urinary tract disorders in children.
They manage a wide range of conditions, from congenital kidney abnormalities and kidney infections to chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, and hypertension.
These specialists also handle issues like electrolyte imbalances and can prepare children for treatments such as dialysis and kidney transplants.
What they do
Supporting long-term health: They help with growth and development issues related to kidney disease and manage the transition of care from pediatric to adult-focused services.
Diagnosing and treating kidney and urinary tract diseases: This includes conditions like kidney failure, kidney stones, urinary tract infections, and congenital abnormalities.
Managing chronic conditions: They treat chronic kidney disease (CKD) and address related issues like poor growth, high blood pressure, and bone disease.
Handling acute and complex problems: This involves treating conditions such as hemolytic uremic syndrome and acute kidney injury.
Addressing specific symptoms: They work to understand and treat conditions such as high blood pressure, protein or blood in the urine, and swelling.
Performing or managing procedures: Pediatric nephrologists may perform minor surgical procedures, such as placing stents, and manage treatments, such as dialysis.
Coordinating care: They work with other specialists, such as transplant surgeons, to manage the care of children who have undergone a kidney transplant.
