Description
Creatinine-GFR by MDRD is a calculation that estimates the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula. This test uses serum creatinine levels along with other factors like age, gender, and race to provide a more accurate assessment of kidney function. The GFR is a key indicator of how well the kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. This calculation is widely used in clinical practice to diagnose and stage chronic kidney disease, adjust medication dosages, and monitor kidney function over time. It’s more informative than creatinine levels alone for evaluating overall kidney health.
