A Review on Heamolytic Uremic Syndrome
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
In summary, patients presented with 2 days diarrhea should be subjected to diagnosis for the presence of E. coli O157:H7, for those <5 years of age with >3 days of diarrhea, leukocytes >13,000/μL, and proteinuria should be hospitalized and monitored closely since there is no treatment of proven value, and care during the acute phase of the illness is still merely supportive with no substantial changes as compared with the past. There is no clear consensus on whether antibiotics should be administered to treat Stx-E. coli infection.
