Proteinuria is an early marker of increased risk of progressive kidney disease. The prevalence of
proteinuria in children in Indonesia, especially in Bali is not definitely known. By determining the
prevalence of proteinuria, an early intervention to reduce and inhibit the progression of kidney disease can
be conducted. The aim of the study is to determine the prevalence and related factors of proteinuria in
primary school children in Bali.
An analytic cross sectional study was conducted on elementary schools students in Bali between July
2013 until December 2013. Data were collected by physical examination and interviewed using
questionnaire. Factors that associated with proteinuria were analyzed using Chi-square test. Multivariate
