Frequently Asked Questions

It uses the Cockcroft-Gault equation: ((140 − age) × weight in kg) ÷ (72 × serum creatinine). For female sex, the result is multiplied by 0.85.

No. Creatinine clearance from Cockcroft-Gault is commonly used for medication dosing estimates, while eGFR is often reported by laboratories for kidney function staging. They can produce different numbers.

No. This tool provides an estimate only. Kidney assessment depends on clinical history, repeat labs, urine testing, medications, hydration status and clinician interpretation.
