However, creatinine levels alone don’t tell the whole story. They’re evaluated in conjunction with various other laboratory results, including estimated glomerular filtration rate and blood ...

Objective Many societies recommend using estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) rather than serum creatinine (sCr) to determine metformin eligibility. We examined the potential impact of ...

Improve workflow and productivity — when patients arrive for imaging sessions without a current creatinine/eGFR workup, the StatSensor Creatinine POC testing can avoid workflow interruptions and ...

Use of the old formula(s) with a serum creatinine level determined using modern methods, therefore, leads to overestimation of the GFR by about 10–20%. 6 With regard to the gold-standard GFR ...

It's a hard process to measure the GFR exactly, so it's usually estimated. You'll have a test that measures the level of a waste product, called creatinine, in your blood. That number goes into an ...

Serum cystatin C levels are influenced by factors other than glomerular filtration rate (GFR), a retrospective analysis suggests. Serum concentration of cystatin C has been proposed as a more ...

ACR: Albumin:creatinine ratio; CVD: Cardiovascular disease; eGFR: Estimated glomerular filtration rate (measured in mls/min/1.73 m 2 of body surface area); HDL-C: HDL cholesterol; LDL-C ...
