eGFR Calculator (CKD-EPI 2021)

Race-free CKD-EPI creatinine eGFR with KDIGO staging — the current international standard equation.

eGFR (mL/min/1.73m²)

The 2021 refit removed the race coefficient after NKF/ASN consensus — labs worldwide have migrated, so older calculators give different numbers from current reports. Single values mislead: eGFR dips with dehydration and big protein meals, and CKD is *defined* by abnormality persisting over 3 months. Staging also needs urine albumin (ACR) alongside.

Formula

CKD-EPI 2021: 142 × min(Scr/κ,1)^α × max(Scr/κ,1)^−1.200 × 0.9938^age × 1.012(F)
Sources: Inker LA et al., NEJM 2021;385:1737-49; KDIGO 2024 CKD guideline
