eGFR
79 mL/min/1.73 m²
CKD stage
G2 — mildly reduced
Interpretation
Not indicative of CKD without other markers

Quick answer

Estimated GFR grades kidney function; the 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine equation is the current standard and omits a race coefficient.

Frequently asked questions

Why did the race coefficient go?

The 2021 CKD-EPI refit removed it because race is a social, not biological, variable and its use delayed care for Black patients.

Is eGFR alone enough to diagnose CKD?

No. CKD requires reduced eGFR or kidney damage markers such as albuminuria persisting over three months.

What do I need to enter into the eGFR Calculator?

Just 3 values: serum creatinine, age, sex. Every field starts with a realistic example, so you can change one number at a time and watch the result update instantly.

How does the eGFR Calculator work out the answer?

Estimated GFR grades kidney function; the 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine equation is the current standard and omits a race coefficient. The working is shown step by step so you can verify the result by hand.

Is the eGFR Calculator free, and do I need an account?

It is completely free with no sign-up, no download and no usage limit. Everything is calculated in your browser, so the numbers you type never leave your device.
