Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) using the Jelliffe method. This calculator helps assess kidney function based on age, serum creatinine, and gender, providing a crucial indicator for medical professionals.
Formula:
The Jelliffe method provides an estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) in ml/min/1.73m2. It is generally applicable for adults 20 years and older with stable serum creatinine levels.
Formula:
eGFR (ml/min/1.73 m²) = (98 - 0.8 × (Age - 20)) / Serum Creatinine
If the patient is female, the result is then multiplied by 0.9.
- Age: Patient's age in years.
- Serum Creatinine (SCr): Serum creatinine level in mg/dL.
