Interpretive Data

The estimated glomerular rate (eGFR) is determined by the 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine equation recommended by the National Kidney Foundation and the American Society of Nephrology's Task Force on Reassessing the Inclusion of Race in Diagnosing Kidney Diseases (JASN 2021; 32(12): 2994-3015).
