Use this calculator to estimate glomerular filtration rate (GFR) using the CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) formula.

Creatinine mg/dL μmol/L
Age (yrs)
Sex
Race

The CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) equation was developed in an effort to create a formula more precise than the MDRD formula, especially when actual GFR is >60 mL/min per 1.73 m2.
