CKD-EPI Equations for Estimated GFR

NephrologyKidney functionLaboratory medicineBeta toolThis tool is in beta. It has undergone internal validation but still requires additional testing. Always confirm the data entered and the results obtained before clinical use. It should not be used as the sole basis for clinical decisions.

Select female or male so the calculator applies the correct 2021 CKD-EPI constants.

Adults only. For ages 18 to 25, compare this adult estimate with the pediatric CKiD U25 calculator.

Context and use

Formula

eGFR = 142 x min(Scr/k, 1)^a x max(Scr/k, 1)^(-1.200) x 0.9938^age x 1.012 if female

Constants: female k = 0.7 and a = -0.241; male k = 0.9 and a = -0.302.

Use IDMS-standardized serum creatinine in mg/dL; output is mL/min/1.73 m².
