Join Monica Richey, NP, with 20+ years of experience in Rheumatology, as she breaks down the latest 2024 ACR guidelines for monitoring lupus nephritis. Learn the best practices for urine testing, protein-creatinine ratios, and medication adjustments to ensure optimal patient care.
She emphasizes the importance of regular urine tests, protein-creatinine ratio checks, and full blood panels to track disease progression and adjust treatment as needed. Monitoring should be done at every visit, especially after starting new medications, with particular attention to trends in protein levels to guide treatment decisions. Additionally, Monica highlights the critical role of medication adherence, noting that treatment failure is sometimes due to missed doses rather than ineffective therapy. By consistently tracking lab results and confirming patient compliance, healthcare providers can optimize lupus nephritis management.
