Answer to Question 1

D
When a child is in remission of nephrotic syndrome, administration of pneumococci and flu vaccines should be considered because exacerbation of nephrotic syndrome can occur following an infection.

Medical treatment for acute poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis focuses on presenting signs and symptoms and the degree of renal dysfunction. Usually, no treatment is required.
