The Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQI) convened a work group to review the 2025 KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) Clinical Practice Guideline for the Management of Nephrotic Syndrome in Children. The KDOQI work group reviewed the KDIGO guideline statements and practice points and provided perspective for implementation within the context of clinical practice in the United States. The updated guidelines reflect contemporary US practice and offer highly relevant guidance that is harmonized with the International Pediatric Nephrology Association’s guidelines published in 2020 and 2022.
