The calibration of this spectrophotometric assay is traceable to the isotope dilution-mass spectrometry (IDMS) method for creatinine.
Estimated GFR mL/min/1.73 m2
  • Male and Female: >60
(Estimated GFR is calculated utilizing the new 2021 Chronic Kidney Disease-Epidemiology (CKD-EPI) equation published in 2021 (Inker et al., NEJM 2021) which does not include a race-based modifier.)
