Estimation of glomerular filtration rate from the serum creatinine concentration.
In patients with renal failure the dose of renally excreted drugs should be reduced in proportion with the degree of impairment of glomerular filtration: in this situation it is appropriate to measure the glomerular filtration rate in order to determine accurately the correct dose. However, as 24 hour urine based creatinine clearance measurements are time consuming and inaccurate, the parameter...
متن کاملSerum creatinine and glomerular filtration rate: perception and reality.
Na primeira leitura, o relato de Spanaus et al.(13) no Clinical Chemistry pode ser descartado como apenas mais uma comparação entre biomarcadores séricos para taxa de filtração glomerular (TFG). Entretanto, os resultados e as conclusões deverão estimular uma reavaliação da concepção errônea, amplamente disseminada, de que a creatinina sérica é um biomarcador insensível da TFG e uma afirmação do...
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 کاملEstimating glomerular filtration rate using the chronic kidney disease-epidemiology collaboration creatinine equation: better risk predictions.
Serum creatinine is measured more than 280 million times annually in the United States, and more than 80% of clinical laboratories now report an estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) when serum creatinine is measured.1,2 The most commonly used equation is the Modification of Diet and Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation. Recently, the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-E...
متن کاملDetection of decreased glomerular filtration rate in intensive care units: serum cystatin C versus serum creatinine
BACKGROUND Detecting impaired glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is important in intensive care units (ICU) in order to diagnose acute kidney injuries and adjust the dose of renally excreted drugs. Whether serum Cystatin C (SCysC) may better reflect glomerular filtration rate than serum creatinine (SCr) in the context of intensive care medicine is uncertain. METHODS We compared the performance ...
