  • Title: Advanced practice nursing in pediatric nephrology.
    Author: Goldberg EA, Meyers K.
    Journal: Nurs Clin North Am; 2000 Mar; 35(1):125-35. PubMed ID: 10673569.
    Abstract:
    This article provides the nurse practitioner with a concise and accurate reference for the evaluation of children with hematuria, proteinuria, and hypertension. Although the incidence of these disorders in children is lower than in adults, they are not uncommon. The nurse practitioner must be able to accurately assess the results of a urinalysis and measure and interpret blood pressure readings in children. A discussion of when to refer children with signs and symptoms of serious disease; and how to educate patients and families in order to promote children's health is also provided.
