PED 4510 Pediatric Nephrology
The kidneys play an integral part in the regulation of bodily functions. The scale of this regulation can be daunting for many students. Dysfunction of the kidneys can quickly lead to severe worsening in a patient’s status in both acute and chronic illness as metabolic imbalances manifest. Especially for those interested in critical care and emergency medicine, understanding the physiology presented in this rotation can be key to recognizing critical illness. For general practitioners, this rotation can help you recognize early manifestations before they become critical. See how to schedule this rotation on the Pediatric ACR Intranet Page.
