Diabetic Nephropathy is a serious complication of Diabetes. Most of the patients with Diabetes have kidney damage in varying degrees, especially common among those with more than 5 years of Diabetes history. In recent years, Diabetic Nephropathy is the main cause of dialysis. Therefore, it is very important to find the early stage of Diabetic Nephropathy.
In the early stage of Diabetic Nephropathy, the patients do not have obvious abnormal clinical symptoms, which is the main reason for delaying the early treatment.
In the early diagnosis of Diabetic Nephropathy, the main diagnosis method is radioimmunoassay measuring the urinary albumin excretion rate. In normal case, the urinary albumin excretion rate is below than 20μg/min. In order to get an accurate diagnosis of early Diabetic Nephropathy, you are recommended to do regular urine test within six moths. If the urinary albumin excretion rate is higher than 20 μg/min min and below 200μg/min, and also other factors in increasing urinary albumin excretion rate are excluded like urinary tract infection, exercise, and heart failure and so on, you can be diagnosed with early stage of Diabetic Nephropathy.
In order to prevent early stage of Diabetic Nephropathy, it is very essential for the patients with Diabetes to take preventive measures as early as possible.
1. The patients with Diabetes, especially those with more than five years of disease history, they should regularly take renal function exam, PRO, protein collection in 24 hours. Moreover, they should enhance measuring their blood pressure and take fundus examination.
2. If possible, they should take urinary albumin and β2- microglobulin check regularly so as to find Diabetic Nephropathy as early as possible.
3. They should control their blood glucose and blood pressure firmly so as to decrease the inducements of Diabetic Nephropathy.
If the patients with Diabetes can take effective preventive measures to avoid renal damage, they will be able to avoid the occurrence of early stage Diabetic Nephropathy.
Diabetic Nephropathy is very common among the patients with more than 10~15 years of Diabetes. However, patients do not know much about this disease so most of them do not receive treatment until they have a large amount of protein in urine.
