alias:: APSGN, AGN
ICD-11_Code::

- ## Etiology
background-color:: blue
- ### Causative Agents
- Group A beta haemolytic streptococci (past infections)
- ### Risk Factors
- ## Epidemiology
background-color:: blue
- ### Incidence
- ### Prevalence
- ### Demographics
- Age: 5-12 years
- Uncommon before 3 years
- ### Geographic Distribution
- ## Pathophysiology
background-color:: blue
- ### Mechanism of Disease
- After infection y group A beta haemolytic streptococci, antibody produced against the streptococcal antigens.
- Antigen-antibody complexes are thus formed in the blood, deposited in the glomeruli, where they incite glomerular inflammation and activate the complement cascade.
- As a result of this inflammation, the following clinico-pathological events occur
- ### Affected Systems/Organs
- ((67384d80-0fa9-407a-bf72-a40fed3e85c6))
- ## Clinical Features
background-color:: blue
- ### Signs and Symptoms
- #### Symptoms
- History of skin or throat infection: May be present, 1-6 weeks prior to disease manifestations.
- Variable manifestations related to severity of renal involvement ranging from
- Asymptomatic microscopic haematuria with normal renal function to acute kidney injury (AKI)
- Scanty high coloured urine, may have anuria
- Puffiness of face
- Fever: Uncommon, but may have low grade fever
- Non-specific symptoms : malaise, lethargy, headache or vomiting may be present
- Sometimes, patients may present with features of comolications like
- ((67384e8c-b398-4d12-99be-78ae8deece2d))
- #### Signs
- Periorbital swelling, and of face also
- Pallor : Mild
- Skin : Evidence of [[Scabies]] or Scars of previous infected scabies
- Oedema : Present
- Blood Pressure : High
- Features of [[Left Heart Failure]]
- ### Stages or Classification
- ### Diagnostic Criteria
- Based on typical C/F and supportive laboratory findings.
- ## Diagnosis
background-color:: blue
- ### Clinical Diagnosis
- #### Classical Presentation
- Evidence of Edema with History of Sore Throat examination
- Associated with scabies
- High Blood Pressure
- Features of [[Left Heart Failure]], [[Hypertensive Encephalopathy]], [[Renal Failure]]
- #### Probable Diagnosis
- ### Laboratory Tests
- ((67385fe9-5fab-4115-843c-17cd3c424e76))
- ### Imaging Studies
- ((67385ffd-3281-4b85-86ec-8a36c9df2689))
- ### Differential Diagnosis
- ### Confirmation of Diagnosis
- ## Management and Treatment
background-color:: blue
- ### Counselling
- Counsel parents about the nature of the disaese, its complications, treatment and prognosis
- ### Medical Treatment
- Bed Rest
- Diet : Restriction of
- Protein to 0.5 gm/kg/day
- Salt : No added salt in the diet
- Potassium ($$\ce{K+}$$) & $$\ce{K+}$$ rich food and fruits
- Fluid : 400 $$ml/m^2$$ + Output of previous day
- Diuretics : Frusemide (1-2 mg/kg/day)
- Antibiotics
- Oral Phenoxymethyl Penicillin (50 mg/kg/day) in 4 divided doses for 10 days
- >Penicillin does not alter the course of the disease but it prevents spreading of remaining nephritogenic strain of sreptococcus to the contacts
- Antihypertensives
- For rapid reduction of BP
- Nifedipine (0.3-0.5 mg/kg) sublingual
- For maintenance of normal BP
- Captopril (0.25-6 mg/kg/day) in 2-4 doses
- Nifedipine (0.25-0.5 mg/kg/day) in 2-4 doses
- ### Surgical Options
- ### Lifestyle and Dietary Recommendations
- ### Follow-up
- Daily to assess clinical response and to search for any complications
- ## Prognosis
background-color:: blue
- ### Expected Course
- #### With Treatment
- complete recovery in >95% cases
- Recurrence is rare
- #### Without Treatment
- ### Survival Rates
