The GFR Calculator estimates your Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR), which is an important measure of kidney function. The results are calculated based on your serum creatinine level, age, gender, and race. The calculator uses three commonly used formulas: Cockcroft-Gault, MDRD, and CKD-EPI.
The Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) is a test used to assess kidney function. It measures the rate at which blood is filtered through the kidneys. A normal GFR is 90 mL/min/1.73 m² or higher. Lower values suggest potential kidney disease.
The GFR is estimated using three formulas:
This calculator provides an estimate based on the inputs provided. Factors such as muscle mass, diet, and hydration status can affect serum creatinine levels and GFR. For an accurate diagnosis, always consult with a healthcare provider.
