Hematuria is a sign and not a disease. Therapy is usually directed at the process causing hematuria. Approximately 30% of children with isolated hematuria may have elevated urinary calcium levels. Therapy consists of reduction in calcium intake (when excessive) to amounts consistent with the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for age and/or prescription of thiazide diuretics. According to Author Deogracias Pena, MD Medical Director of Dialysis, Cook Children’s Medical Center, hematuria is defined as the presence of 5 or more red blood cells (RBCs) per high-power field in 3 of 3 consecutive centrifuged specimens obtained at least 1 week apart. The pathophysiology is believed to consist of chemicals causing toxic disruptions of the renal tubules, while calculi (deposits of calcium) may cause mechanical erosion of mucosal surfaces in the genitourinary tract, resulting in hematuria.
