GFR declines with age, even in the absence of chronic kidney disease, from an average of 116 mL/min/1.73 m 2 at age 20 to about 75 mL/min/1.73 m 2 at age 70. [4] This natural decline is accounted ...
Purpose: Estimates of creatinine clearance (CL cr) based on equations and various body-size descriptors were compared with 24-hour measured CL cr values in morbidly obese patients. Methods ...
In addition, the current data set could have been used to derive a new equation to estimate CL cr in this extremely morbidly obese population (31% of patients with a BMI of > 50 kg/m 2). Both ...
Conclusion. An LBW estimate, based on TBW and BMI, incorporated into the Cockcroft-Gault equation provided an unbiased, relatively precise, accurate, and clinically practical estimate of 24-hour ...
Obese patients are classified into three groups based on a body mass index (BMI) of 30.0-34.9, 35.0-39.9, and ≥40.0 kg/m 2. [2] This last group is often referred to as morbidly obese and ...
When estimating CL cr using the Cockcroft–Gault formula, it has been recommended to round SCr values to 1 mg/dL in underweight patients whose SCr concentration is <1 mg/dL. This is often done to ...
Background: In current Gynecologic Oncology Group studies, serum creatinine level is adjusted to 0.6 mg/dL in patients with levels < 0.6 mg/dL (Adjusted-Jelliffe formula). The purpose of this ...
January 31, 2023. 0. A new equation for calculating a person's kidney function — their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) — worked as well with serum cystatin C as it did with serum ...
Abstract. Objective Many societies recommend using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) rather than serum creatinine (sCr) to determine metformin eligibility. We examined the potential ...
CMS is mostly administered for 10–14 days. Dose regimens varied considerably. Doses were adjusted for renal function depending on serum creatinine levels or creatinine clearance. Colistin PKs ...
