Rehabilitation of a Patient With Minimal Change Nephrotic Syndrome and Acute Kidney Injury: A Case Report.
Journal of UOEH(2022)
摘要
Patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) are prone to loss of motor skills due to urinary protein leakage, steroid myopathy, and other factors. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication that contributes to the loss of physical function. Rehabilitation is crucial, but its efficacy and safety are unknown. Here we present a case of a patient with MCNS complicated by AKI, who commenced rehabilitation after dialysis was discontinued and experienced improved mobility. The patient, a woman in her 70s, was admitted to our hospital with bilateral lower limb edema and decreased urine output for approximately 5 days. Treatment with prednisolone and furosemide was initiated, but then dialysis was initiated due to AKI. Rehabilitation was started after dialysis was discontinued. The patient's muscle strength and physical activity improved, and her exercise capacity and exercise tolerance improved without adverse effects. Rehabilitation may contribute to the improvement of exercise capacity without worsening renal function and urinary protein in patients with MCNS complicated by AKI.
