PROTEINUREA.

? Manifestation of glomerular disease,

characterised by nephrotic range proteinurea

and a triad of clinical finding associated with

large urinary losses of protein :

hypoalbuminaemia, edema and

hyperlipidemia.

? Urine dipstick.
? Urinary pr./cr. Ratio.
? 24 hrs urine collection.
PROTEINUREA.

? The presence of abnormal quantities of

protein in the urine is called proteinurea.

? Evaluation of proteinurea--
? HISTORY--
? Symptoms of renal failure.
? Past history of DM, HTN, CCF.
? Drug history---NSAID, Captopril.
? Family history of PCKD.
Examination.

? Look for sign of Nephrotic syndrome.
? Urine dipstick test to check for microscopic

hematurea.

? If present go for urine microscopy.
? Rule out Diabetes and UTI.
Quantification for proteinurea.

? 24 hrs urine collection.
? Spot urine protein to creatinine ratio.(PCR).
? Albumin to creatinine ratio. (ACR).
? More than 150 mg in 24h(PCR) is abnormal.
? Nephrotic range > 3.5 g/24h or ratio of 3500.
? Check for serum albumin and cholesterol.
URINE DIPSTICK TEST.

? Positive:
? If proteinurea 1+ (30mg/dl with sp.g <1.015.
? ....................... 2+ (100mg/dl)............> 1.015.
? Less sensitive
? LMWP
? Bence jones protein.
? Gamma globulins.
? It mainly detects albumin.


Urine dipstick test.

? Classification of proteinurea?
? Negative----no protein.
? Trace -------10--20 mg/dl.
? 1+ --------30-100 mg/dl.
? 2+ ---------100- 300 mg/dl.
? 3+ --------300- 1000 mg/dl.
? 4+ --------> 1000mg/dl.
Urine dipstick test.

? False negative
? Diluted urine
? Disease in which predominant urinary protein is

not albumin.

? False positive
? Concentrated urine
? Urine PH > 7.
? Gross hematurea.
? Antiseptic contamination.
Urinary protein/creatinine ratio.

? First morning voided urine should be tested.
? This ratio is age dependent:
? < 2 years < 0.5
? > 2 years < 0.2
? Nephrotic range......... 3.
24 hours urine collection.

? Normal proteinurea
? < 4mg/m2/hours
? Abnormal proteinurea
? > 4mg/m2/hours
? Nephrotic range proteinurea
? > 40 mg/m2/hours
Types of proteinurea.

? Transient proteinurea.
? Postural proteinurea.
? Persistent proteinurea.

? transient proteinurea---
? High fever, exercise, dehydration, stress, etc.
? Note-
? Does not exceed 2+
? It is benign.
? No need to any evaluation.
POSTURAL PROTEINUREA.

? Morning voided urine- absent/ traces of protein.
? Urine pr./cr. < 0.2 for 3 consecutive days.
? Most common cause:
? In 60 % of school age and adolescent children.
? Usually asymptomatic.
? Usually not exceed 1g/m2/day.
? No BP INCREASE, azotemia, oedema,

hypoalbuminemia.
Persistent proteinurea.

? Necessary to R/O postural proteinurea.
? Exact cause unknown.
? Possible cause --
? Altered renal hemodynamic
? Partial renal vein obstruction.
? If persists-
? Long term follow up for renal disease

detection.
Fixed proteinurea.

? Significant proteinurea in first morning

voided urine for 3 consecutive days.

? > 1+ on dipstick.
? > 0.2 U pr./U.cr.
? It usually indicates renal disease.
? Classified on the basis of site of origin:
? Glomerulous.
? Tubular
Glomerular proteinurea.

? Due to increased glomerular capillary

permeability.

It is always selective.

? Selective proteinurea
? Excretory protein molecular wt. albumin.
? Non selective proteinurea
? Excretory protein, molecular wt. > albumin.
Glomerular proteinurea

? Suspect if
? U pr./cr. Ratio > 1.0
? Associated with hypertension, Azotemia,

oedema, hematurea.

? Causes are
? FSGN,,PSGN,IGA nephropathy, HSPN.
Tubular proteinurea.

? MW< albumin, protein filter---- reabsorb.
? Reabsorption reduces in proximal tubular injury

disease.

? Low MW proteins.
? < 1g/d.
? Urinary Pr./cr. < 1.0
? Oedema absent.
? Cause-
? cystinosis, ATN, PCKD.
NEPHROTIC SYNDROME.

? Incidence: 2-3/100,000 children/year.
? 15 times more common in children.
? Characterised by
? Heavy proteinurea > 40mg/m2/ hrs.
? Hypoalbuminemia < 2.5 mg/dl.
? Oedema
? Hypercholestremia/Hyperlipidemia > 200

mg/dl.
Classification of Nephrotic

syndrome.

? 1.Ideopathic(90%).
? -Minimal change 85%.
? Mesengial proliferative 5%.
? FSGN 10%.
? 2.Secondary (10%).
? Membranous nephropathy
? Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
? 3.Congenital.
PATHOLOGY.

Decrease serum

PATHOLOGY.

Due to albumin decreases in blood

Oncotic pressure in blood

Also decreases.

So, fluid comes out to extracellular space.

Orbital edema

Generalised edema

ANASARCA.
Sign/symptoms of Idiopathic NS.

? Periorbital oedema.
? Pedal oedema.
? Ascites and pleural effusion.
? General oedema.
? Hematurea in few cases.
MCNs(Lipoid Nephrosis)

? Commenest cause of nephrotic

syndrome(70%).

? Common in male M:F 2:1
? Common age 2-7 years.
? 15 Times more common in children.
? Oedema , anorexia, irritability, abdominal

pain, diarrhoea.
Diagnosis of MCNS.

? Urine analysis : Protein urea 3-4+(selective).
? Microscopic hematurea 10-20 %.
? Spot urine-urinary pr./cr. 2.
? 24 hrs urine collection > 40 mg/m2/h

proteinurea .

? S.albumin < 2.5 mg/dl.
? High cholestero and triglycerides > 200 mg/dl.
? S. Urea, creatinine, C3, C4, levels normal
