TITLE
“Spectrum of biopsy findings and outcomes in
Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN)
patients at a tertiary care centre of central
India:-a cross sectional study.”
INTRODUCTION
•Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) manifests as a clinical
syndrome marked by rapid deterioration in renal function, often
accompanied by oliguria or anuria requiring RRT( dialysis ), and
characterized by features typical of glomerulonephritis (hematuria,
proteinuria, hypertension and oedema). RPGN can have a spectrum of
histopathological findings depending on the cause and severity.
•Understanding the diverse histo-pathological findings in RPGN patients
is crucial for defining effective long term therapeutic strategies and for
prognostication .
•The indian data regarding RPGN, its risk
factors and outcomes is scarce , with current
study we proposes to evaluate the
histopathological spectrum of RPGN along
with evaluation of its risk factors and
outcomes over 3 months to fill this knowledge
gap.
Rationale
Title “Spectrum of biopsy findings and outcomes in Rapidly
progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) patients at a tertiary
care centre of central India.”
AIMS & OBJECTIVES
AIM-To Study Spectrum of biopsy findings and outcomes in Rapidly
progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) patients at a tertiary care
centre of central India.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE–
•To characterize the spectrum of biopsy findings in
Rapidly Progressive Glomerulonephritis patients
admitted to a tertiary care centre in Central India.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE –
•To evaluate outcomes, including changes in renal
function and requirement for renal replacement
therapy, among RPGN patients.
METHODOLOGY
•Study design-Observational Study
•Study period-1 year (from the date of approval)
•Place of the study- M.G.M. MEDICAL COLLEGE AND
M.Y.HOSPITAL ,INDORE
•Sample size- All patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria during
the study period will be included with minimum patients
being 50.
1.Study Population –Patients diagnosed with Rapidly
Progressive Glomerulonephritis who underwent biopsy
admitted in M.G.M. MEDICAL COLLEGE AND M.Y.HOSPITAL
,INDORE .
PROCEDURE PLANNED
•Written Informed consent
•Detailed history and clinical examination as per
proforma
•Laboratory tests (CBC, Renal function test, urine
routine microscopy, and Renal biopsy (light microscopy
and immunofluorescence if required),ANCA,ANTI GBM
antibody wherever required)
•Imaging methods(USG in selected patients)
•Baseline data of hospitalised patients will be analysed and followed
up after 3 months.
•An ultrasound-guided percutaneous renal biopsy will be by senior
nephrologist and analysed by senior pathologist
•Depending on the type of RPGN and overall clinical status, the
patients will be treated for the disease as per standard protocol
•Patients will be followed up for a period of three months. Complete
blood counts, serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, urine routine
examination will be done at 15 days, 1 month and 3 month intervals.
INCLUSION CRITERIA
•After taking informed written consents, following
patients will be included in the study-
1.All patients of RPGN who have underwnet biopsy
EXCLUSION CRITERIA
Following class of patients will be excluded-
•Patients not giving consent for participation.
•Patients below 18 yrs of age
•Pregnant females and psychiatry disease patients
•Known case of chronic kidney disease.
•Significant comorbidities making biopsy unlikely(
cancer, coagulation disorder,CLD etc.)
Sample size formula (Cochran’s formula)
n=Z2*p*(1-p)d2
n=1.962*0.06*0.940.052
n=0.11050.0025=44.22≅50
Total sample size 50
Z = Confidence interval 95% two sided =1.96
P = The prevalence of RPGN ranges between 2 and 10% in previous
artical= average 6%=0.06
1-p = 1-0.06= 0.94
D = Absolute precision = 5%% = 0.05
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS PLAN
•Data will be analysed by JAMOVI
• Normal and continuous variables will he
compared using Student’s t- test,paired t-test or
ANOVA as appropriate
•Categorical variables will be compared by chi-
square test.
•For all analysis a probability value of <0.05 will be
considered statistically significant.
•Values that will retain statistical significance will be
reported with 95% confidence interval

PATIENT INFORMATION DOCUMENT
The purpose of the study is “Spectrum of biopsy finding and outcome of Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
(RPGN) patients at a tertiary care centre of central India:-a cross-sectional study”40 patients are expected to be
included in this study.
•If you agree to participate in the study, you will be asked some questions related to your health and disease state.
•If you agree to participate in the study a renal biopsy involves removing kidney tissue for diagnosis Is done via a needle
inserted under imaging guidance. Risks include bleeding, pain, infection, injury to nearby organs, and rare complications like
blood clots or allergic reactions.
•If you agree to participate in the study,You will be given standard treatment and details of that will be noted. You will neither
be given any new or different treatment nor any extra investigations will be done on you.
•After getting discharged from the hospital, you will be contacted personally or telephonically after 3 months and certain
information will be asked from you.
•You might not be getting any additional benefits from the study but the information gathered by this may help many patients.
•The information taken from you will be kept totally confidential.
•You are totally independent to participate in this study and you can withdraw yourself from the study at any point.
