A comparison of glomerular filtration rate by creatinine based equations and DTPA-renogram in healthy adult kidney donors.
INTRODUCTION Accurate determination of donor kidney function has important long-term implications for both donor health and recipient outcome. Many centers use 24 hour urinary creatinine clearance or creatinine-based GFR estimations to assess kidney function but their performance when compared with GFR measurements by isotope clearance remains inconclusive. We assessed the performance of creati...
متن کاملExisting creatinine-based equations overestimate glomerular filtration rate in Indians
BACKGROUND Accurate estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is important for diagnosis and risk stratification in chronic kidney disease and for selection of living donors. Ethnic differences have required correction factors in the originally developed creatinine-based GFR estimation equations for populations around the world. Existing equations have not been validated in the vegetarian ...
متن کاملComparison of Estimating Equations for the Prediction of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Kidney Donors before and after Kidney Donation
The aim of this study is to investigate the usefulness of the GFR-estimating equations to predict renal function in kidney donors before and after transplantation. We compared the performance of 24-hour-urine-based creatinine clearance (24 hr urine-CrCl), the Cockcroft-Gault formula (eGFRCG), the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease equation (eGFRMDRD), and the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiol...
متن کاملDetermining Glomerular Filtration Rate in Homozygous Sickle Cell Disease: Utility of Serum Creatinine Based Estimating Equations
BACKGROUND Various estimating equations have been developed to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) for use in clinical practice. However, the unique renal physiological and pathological processes that occur in sickle cell disease (SCD) may invalidate these estimates in this patient population. This study aims to compare GFR estimated using common existing GFR predictive equations to actua...
متن کاملA comparison of prediction equations for estimating glomerular filtration rate in adults without kidney disease.
The ability of the Modification of Renal Disease (MDRD) equation to predict GFR when compared with multiple other prediction equations in healthy subjects without known kidney disease was analyzed. Between May 1995 and December 2001, a total of 117 healthy individuals underwent (125)I-iothalamate or (99m)Tc-diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid (DTPA) renal studies as part of a routine kidney don...
