[PP.22.16] CKD-EPI EQUATIONS ESTIMATED GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE (GFR): COMPARISON WITH OTHER CYSTATIN C DERIVED EQUATIONSCystatin C has proven to be a useful parameter to evaluate renal and cardiovascular risk. Nevertheless, there are scanty reports on the utility of this test in the...

a range of 80-120mL/min/1.73 m2is generally normal. GFR decreases as you get older, but a reduced GFR can cause similar issues in older adults as in those who are younger. Adecrease in GFR could also be a sign ofkidney diseaseor kidney failure. A GFR below 60 mL/min/1.73 m2may i...
The eGFR is calculated according to the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation using isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS)-traceable serum creatinine measurements, patient age (≥18 years), and patient sex; patient race (African versus non-African ances...
reduced GFR.56Thus, the CKD-EPI equation is currently replacing other eGFR equations such as the Cockcroft-Gault equation or the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation. Despite several limitations,serum creatinineremains the most commonly used renal marker for estimation of GFR. ...
The Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equation for estimation of GFR from serum creatinine (eGFRCKD-EPI) improves GFR estimation compared with the MDRD Study equation [2]. eGFRCKD-EPI, as compared to eGFRMDRD, results in a lower prevalence of decreased eGFR [2]. Recen...
Evaluation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is central to the assessment of kidney function in medical practice, research and public health. Measured GFR (mGFR) remains the reference standard, but the past 20 years have seen major advances in estimate
At a serum creatinine value of 1 mg/dL, the change in estimated GFR was 1 mL/min/1.73 m2 after calibration. Conversely, higher range GFR estimates were affected by calibration of the CLS creatinine assay. At a serum creatinine value of 1 mg/dL, the GFR estimate was 6 mL/min/1.73 m2...
The CKD-EPI equations were developed for hemodynamically stable patients. GFR estimations in the acute care setting have not been established. Patients in the control group were younger than patients in the overdosed group. The last limitation was the relatively small number of patients, but it is...
In this study, the use of GFR assessed at hospital admission and estimated with the last CKD-EPI formula showed good capability to identify alterations in renal function due to COVID-19. In fact, eGFR values were significantly lower with respect to both hospital discharge and baseline values, ...
