Comparison of equations to estimate the glomerular filtration in people aged 75 or older without known renal disease

To compare the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of patients aged 75 and older without known renal disease estimated by the MDRD-4-IDMS (MDRD) formula, urine 24h creatinine clearance (24h-CC) and Cockroft-Gault (CG) formula. There were included 70 persons aged 75 and older from the geriatric external...

Zusammenfassung:To compare the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of patients aged 75 and older without known renal disease estimated by the MDRD-4-IDMS (MDRD) formula, urine 24h creatinine clearance (24h-CC) and Cockroft-Gault (CG) formula. There were included 70 persons aged 75 and older from the geriatric external consultation. We compared the MDRD against the CG and the 24h-CC. Means of GFR were: 24h-CC: 56,60 + or - 22,79 ml/min/1.73 m(2) and CG: 54,27 + or - 15,25 ml/min/1.73 m(2), significantly lower than with MDRD: 69,78 + or - 18,53 ml/min/1.73 m(2) (p
