Calculation
Estimated glomerular filtration rate equation:
Male
If CREA/0.9 >1
(((142*1)*((CREA/0.9)^-1.2))*(0.9938^age in yrs))
If CREA/0.9 <1
(((142*((crea/0.9)^-0.302))*(0.9938^age in yrs))
Female
If CREA/0.7 >1
(((142*((CREA/0.7)^-1.2))*(0.9938^age in yrs))*1.012)
If CREA/0.7 <1
(((142*((crea/0.7)^-0.241))*(0.9938^age in yrs))*1.012)
