The disease brings great harm to the health of children and requires timely treatment and strengthened nursing work. Let us take a look at the precautions for the late stage of children's kidney disease. Let's take a look:

2. Water intake: It should be strictly limited. In hotter seasons, water intake can be appropriately relaxed to replenish the water loss caused by sweating. In case of large amounts of diuresis or vomiting or diarrhea, water should be appropriately replenished.

3. High-quality protein diet for nephrotic syndrome in children: Sufficient protein should be supplemented, with a daily supply of 1.5-2.0 grams per kilogram of body weight being appropriate. Generally, high-quality proteins with high bioavailability such as lean meat, fish, eggs, milk, etc. are selected.

4. Calorie intake should be limited: During the use of glucocorticoids, children often have a strong appetite and often gain weight due to excessive eating. Children who are overweight may sometimes develop hepatomegaly and fatty liver, so they should take in appropriate calories. In addition, they should also take in enough calcium and vitamin D.
