GFR Calculator (Kidney Function)
Estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using the CKD-EPI equation.
Enter age, serum creatinine, and sex to assess kidney function stage.
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR) measures how well your kidneys filter waste. It is the primary test for chronic kidney disease (CKD) staging.
CKD-EPI 2021 Equation (race-free):
For females (serum creatinine <= 0.7 mg/dL):
eGFR = 142 x (Cr/0.7)^-0.241 x 0.9938^age
For females (serum creatinine > 0.7 mg/dL):
eGFR = 142 x (Cr/0.7)^-1.200 x 0.9938^age
For males (serum creatinine <= 0.9 mg/dL):
eGFR = 142 x (Cr/0.9)^-0.302 x 0.9938^age
For males (serum creatinine > 0.9 mg/dL):
eGFR = 142 x (Cr/0.9)^-1.200 x 0.9938^age
CKD Stages:
- Stage 1 (GFR >= 90): Normal or high — kidney damage with normal function
- Stage 2 (GFR 60–89): Mildly decreased
- Stage 3a (GFR 45–59): Mild to moderately decreased
- Stage 3b (GFR 30–44): Moderately to severely decreased
- Stage 4 (GFR 15–29): Severely decreased
- Stage 5 (GFR < 15): Kidney failure
Normal creatinine ranges:
- Males: 0.7–1.3 mg/dL (62–115 µmol/L)
- Females: 0.6–1.1 mg/dL (53–97 µmol/L)
