Issues encompass: * which calculation to use (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease, or MDRD, or Cockcroft-Gault); * whether or not the laboratory information system can support the calculation; and * whether or not to calculate the eGFR on all creatinine tests performed by the laboratory or specifically by request. The MDRD is obviously not a direct measure of GFR but rather a population-based formula that may have limitations when applied to patients not included in the original study population. 35) Calculate the GFR Although creatinine levels alone are relatively inaccurate in determining the presence of kidney disease, especially mild kidney disease, physicians can estimate GFR using standard equations such as the Cockroft-Gault or the MDRD (modification of diet in renal disease) (Table 4) that are available on the NKF web site. |
