Glomerular Filtration Markers and Calculation Formulas

Abstract

Renal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the amount of substances which are filtered by glomeruli in milliliters per minute. GFR is one of the most commonly used test among the kidney function test. Also, it is considered to be the best indicator of total kidney function in health and disease. The decline in GFR is the earliest laboratory finding for diagnosis of the renal disease. GFR cannot be measured directly, but instead it can be assessed by the renal clearance of filtration markers. In order to measure GFR, endogenous markers such as urea, creatinine, cysta-tin C, and exogenous markers such as inulin are used. In addition some formulas have been developed to calculate GFR.
