The program in nephrology offers a broad specialized experience for pediatric
resident physicians. Weekly clinics, teaching conferences, and inpatient
rounds cover all the special interest areas within the subspecialty. The
residents assigned to nephrology assist in consultations on both the pediatric
and urology services. Additional clinical experience is provided by management
of pediatric patients requiring dialysis and transplantation. Residents
acquire experience in the management of pediatric patients with nephritic
and nephrotic diseases, acute and chronic renal failure, hypertension, fluid
and electrolyte disorders, tubular diseases, and common urological problems.
