  2. Glomerular filtration rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glomerular_filtration_rate

    The normal range of GFR, adjusted for body surface area, is 100–130 average 125 mL/min/1.73m 2 in men and 90–120 ml/min/1.73m 2 in women younger than the age of 40. In children, GFR measured by inulin clearance is 110 mL/min/1.73 m 2 until 2 years of age in both sexes, and then it progressively decreases. After age 40, GFR decreases ...

  3. Race adjustment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_adjustment

    The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a measure of kidney function. [6] Adding a race adjustment to kidney algorithms results in higher eGFR values in people identified as black. [7] [8] [9] Reasons for this vary, but it is thought to partially stem from the notion that Black persons are more muscular. [8]

  4. Assessment of kidney function - Wikipedia

    The normal range of GFR, adjusted for body surface area, is 100–130 average 125 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) in men and 90–120 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2) in women younger than the age of 40. In children, GFR measured by inulin clearance is 110 (mL/min)/(1.73 m 2 ) until 2 years of age in both sexes, and then it progressively decreases.

  6. Kidney failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kidney_failure

    Renal professionals consider the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) to be the best overall index of kidney function. [33] The National Kidney Foundation offers an easy to use on-line GFR calculator [34] for anyone who is interested in knowing their glomerular filtration rate. (A serum creatinine level, a simple blood test, is needed to use the ...

  9. Body surface area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_surface_area

    Renal clearance usually divided by the BSA i.e. per 1.73 m² to gain an appreciation of the true glomerular filtration rate (GFR); The Quetelet index uses a somewhat modified form of the BSA; The cardiac index is a measure of cardiac output divided by the BSA, giving a better approximation of the effective cardiac output;
