Table 1.

Equations used for calculation of estimated GFR.

Equations Based on Creatinine
Equation 1 eGFR-Schwartz creatinine (mL/min/1.73 m2)=42.3×(height (m)creatinine (mg/dL))0.79
Equation 2 eGFR-Brandt (mLmin)=k×(age (months)+6)×(weight(kg))creatinine(mgdL) 
k=0.95 (females) and 1.05 (males)
Equation 3 eGFR-Millisor (mL/min/1.73 m2)=0.33×(height (cm)creatinine (mg/dL))
Equations Based on Cystatin C
Equation 4 eGFR-Schwartz cystatin C (mL/min/1.73 m2)=40.6×(1.8cystatin C (mg/L)0.93
Equation 5 eGFR-FAS cystatin C (mL/min/1.73 m2)=107.3 ÷ (cystatin C (mg/L)0.82)
Equation 6 eGFR-Berg=91×cystatin C (mg/L)1.213

eGFR: estimated glomerular filtration rate.
