What Does eGFR level Stand For?

What Does eGFR level Stand For?
A:

In medical reports, there can be several numbers related to kidney health. Those concerned about their kidney health should look at the eGFR level for the most accurate reading. eGFR is short for the estimated glomerular filtration rate. It measures the total filtration rates of functioning units called “nephrons” in the kidney. It indicates how well the kidney can filter wastes out of the body. The eGFR level can’t be measured directly. It is calculated by a formula that uses serum creatinine and some demographic factors such as age and gender.

 

Monitoring the eGFR level helps in detecting kidney problems and its severity. In general, a higher eGFR level means better kidney functions. In contrast, a lower eGFR level means the kidney is not working properly. But what is a normal eGFR level? What does the number indicate?

 

1. Most healthy people have an eGFR ≥ 90mL/min/1.73 m2. Without kidney damage, an eGFR between 60 – 90mL/min/1.73 m2may also be considered normal for the elderly and infants. 

2. eGFR of 60 – 90mL/min/1.73 m2for more than 3 months, along with kidney damage, indicates early kidney problems. 

3. eGFR 60 mL/min/1.73 m2for more than 3 months indicates chronic kidney problems.

A:
Using creatinine as an indication of kidney function level is common, but just this number alone is not the optimal way to monitor kidney health nor to detect early kidney problems. According to professional recommendations, using an eGFR level is a more accurate indication of kidney health.   Creatinine is a by-product generated from protein metabolism. Therefore, muscle mass and diet can affect creatinine generation. For example, a muscular person or a person who cr
