Preferred Label : MDRD 5 Variable Formula;
NCIt definition : A formula to estimate glomerular filtration rate that takes into account age, sex,
race, serum creatinine and serum urea nitrogen. eGFR (mL/min/1.73 m 270 x creatinine
(mg/dl) -1.007 x age -0.180 x 1.178 (if black) x 0.762 (if female) x serum urea nitrogen
-0.169. (Levey AS, Greene T, Kusek JW, Beck GJ, MDRD study group. A simplified equation
to predict glomerular filtration rate from serum creatinine. J Am Soc Nephrol 2000;
11: A0828.);
