Renal reserve in children is related to changes in renal plasma flow (RPF) in health and renal disease. Peak glomerular flow rate (GFR) correlates with peak RPF. The renal hemodynamic response to protein is associated with a decrease in renal vascular resistance. Studies in children are less numerous than in adults. The main findings of the studies on renal reserve in children have disclosed the following: (1) the lack of an age dependency, (2) the normalcy of renal reserve in renal disease, (3) the return of renal reserve in type 1 diabetes mellitus by a reduction in protein intake, and (4) the suppressibility of renal reserve by somatostatin infusion.
