Postnatal care (PNC) for the mother should respond to her special needs, starting within an hour after the delivery of the placenta and extending through the following six weeks. The care includes the prevention, early detection and treatment of complications, and the provision of counselling on breastfeeding, birth spacing, immunization and maternal nutrition. To standardise the PNC service, you are advised to use the screening, counselling and postnatal care cards. These cards ensure that you have covered all the essential steps in every home visit.

E. Atypical HUS (aHUS)
1. Epidemiology. aHUS is much less common than STEC-HUS.
2. Etiology
a. Drugs (e.g., oral contraceptives, cyclosporine, tacrolimus) or pregnancy may cause
aHUS.
b. Inherited aHUS occurs with both autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive
inheritance patterns, although not all patients have identifiable mutations. These
genetic mutations cause chronic, excessive activation of complement, which also
leads to platelet activation, endothelial cell damage, and systemic thrombotic
microangiopathy.
3. Clinical features. Clinical findings are similar to those of STEC-HUS. Diarrhea may also
be present, and severe proteinuria and hypertension are more consistently found. The
clinical course is generally more severe with multiorgan damage.
4. Management. Treatment is supportive. Inciting medications, if any, must be stopped
immediately.
5. Prognosis. Some patients have a chronic relapsing course (recurrent HUS). All patients
with aHUS have a higher risk of progression to ESRD than patients with STEC-HUS.
