Using mathematical algorithms to modify glomerular filtration rate estimation equations.

Using mathematical algorithms to modify glomerular filtration rate estimation equations.

BACKGROUND: The equations provide a rapid and low-cost method of evaluating glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Previous studies indicated that the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD), Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) and MacIsaac equations need further modification for applicati...
