Abstract

The goal is to discuss the criteria for the early diagnosis of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in children. The article presents data from modern literature on the epidemiology, classification, and criteria for the diagnosis of CKD, own scientific results on clinical and paraclinical characteristics of CKD and regional characteristics of CKD in children of the Orenburg region. Modern approaches to the early diagnosis of CKD in children, the identification of risk factors for the progression of nephropathy and the algorithm for the diagnosis of CKD in childhood, taking into account unfavorable regional factors, are scientifically substantiated. A set of measures for the prevention of nephropathy and a scheme of follow-up observation of children at high risk has been developed. The ways to improve the children's nephrology service are substantiated. Modern pathogenetic approaches to the diagnosis of CKD in children are presented. An algorithm for diagnosing the initial stages of CKD in children at risk for CKD and children with renal pathology without CKD with a preliminary selection of anamnestic and clinical and paraclinical indicators is proposed.
