What Treatments Do Pediatric Nephrologists Provide?
Treatment plans are tailored to the specific condition and needs of the child and may include:
- Medications: To manage symptoms, control blood pressure, or treat infections. - Dietary Modifications: Special diets to manage conditions like nephrotic syndrome or CKD. - Dialysis: For children with severe kidney failure, dialysis helps remove waste products and excess fluids from the blood. - Kidney Transplantation: In cases of end-stage renal disease, a kidney transplant may be the best option for long-term health.
