Abstract

Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common bacterial infections among children and its prevalence is between 5-7% in females and 1-1.6% in males. Urosepsis, febrile seizure, renal insufficiency and hypertension are common complications of acute PYELONEPHRITIS in children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of URINARY NAG in pyelonephritic patients.Materials and Methods: This is a Quasi Experimental study conducted between April 2005 and May 2006 on 72 children admitted in Mofid Hospital due to PYELONEPHRITIS. The first sample (fresh random urine) was obtained and its levels NAG and Creatinin were measured. The second one was obtained on 48th hour of after-treatment period.Results: We examined pyelonephritic children (75% female) with mean age of 43 ± 39 months. Post-treatment URINARY NAG lavel was significantly higher than pre-treatment. URINARY NAG revealed to have a sensitivity of 78% and specificity of 72% in diagnosis of PYELONEPHRITIS. There was no significant correlation between URINARY NAG level and CBC, ESR, CRP, Urinary WBC, Ultrasonography, DMSA SCAN and VCUG. Conclusion: We concluded that URINARY NAG is a sensitive and specific test in diagnosis of PYELONEPHRITIS.
