Enter your values to see the result.

Uses the race-free CKD-EPI 2021 equations recommended by the NKF-ASN task force, with MDRD shown for comparison. Only valid for adults with stable kidney function, not in acute kidney injury, pregnancy or extremes of muscle mass. For education and clinical decision support only. Results do not replace professional judgment, local protocols or the product information, so always verify doses and values before acting on them.

How to use the eGFR Calculator

Estimated GFR with the race-free CKD-EPI 2021 equations and CKD stage.

  1. 1 Enter sex, age and serum creatinine in mg/dL or µmol/L.
  2. 2 Add cystatin C if you have it for a more accurate estimate.
  3. 3 Read the eGFR in mL/min/1.73 m² and the CKD stage.

Example and practical tips

A 55-year-old man with a creatinine of 1.1 mg/dL (97 µmol/L) has an eGFR of 79 mL/min/1.73 m², stage G2.

Frequently asked questions

Why is there no race coefficient?

The 2021 CKD-EPI equations were refitted without race, as recommended by the NKF-ASN task force, and are now the US standard.

When is eGFR unreliable?

In acute kidney injury, pregnancy, very high or low muscle mass, amputations and extreme diets. Measured clearance or cystatin C helps then.

Can I use this to make treatment decisions?

It supports education and clinical decision-making but does not replace clinical judgment, local protocols or product information. Always double-check results.
