2023年11月19日 · Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is divided into five stages, ranging from stage 1 to stage 5. Each stage is determined by a blood test known as the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), which establishes how well your kidneys filter waste and …

2021年6月17日 · Healthcare providers use estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) to determine if you have kidney disease, and if so, what stage. eGFR measures your kidneys’ ability to filter toxins or waste from your blood.

2022年7月13日 · Your kidneys filter your blood by removing waste and extra water to make urine. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) shows how well the kidneys are filtering. An estimated 37 million adults in the United States may have chronic kidney disease (CKD) but nearly 90% are unaware of their condition.

2025年1月23日 · An eGFR number between 60 and 89 means your kidneys’ ability to filter waste from your blood is mildly decreased. You may have mild kidney damage. Your eGFR result is XX mL/min/1.73.

2019年1月14日 · Chart of Kidney Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) number according to your age, includes a table showing chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages.

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the best overall index of kidney function. Normal GFR varies according to age, sex, and body size, and declines with age.

2025年1月3日 · Your eGFR is an estimated number based on a blood test and your age, sex, and body type. eGFR is considered a mostly reliable test for doctors to know how well your kidneys are working. However, the eGFR may not be accurate if you are younger than 18, pregnant, very overweight or very muscular.

2024年3月12日 · The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a measure of how well your kidneys are removing waste from your blood, which can be determined using an estimated GFR (eGFR) test.

The GFR (glomerular filtration rate) Calculator estimates GFR values based on factors including serum creatinine value, age, race, and gender. For comparison purposes, the results for three prevalent formulas used for estimating GFR are provided.

Stage 2: Kidney damage and eGFR 60-89 • Stage 2 CKD means you have some signs of kidney damage (like protein in your urine, or physical damage to the kidneys), but your eGFR is between 60 and 89.
