GFR Calculator Description

Understanding Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR)

The GFR is a critical measure of kidney function, estimating the volume of filtered fluid through the glomeruli per minute. It's a key indicator in diagnosing and monitoring kidney disease.

The GFR is calculated based on factors including age, sex, and serum creatinine levels. The MDRD and CKD-EPI equations are commonly used formulas for this calculation.

Accurate GFR calculation is vital for assessing kidney health, adjusting medication dosages, and monitoring disease progression. This calculator provides an easy-to-use interface for determining your GFR.
