Calculate estimated GFR by MDRD

Description

Calculates estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by several common methods. Converts weight to Kg and Height to cm if needed. Available methods for eGFR calculations include:

* CKD-EPI(2021) * CKD-EPI Cystatin-C * MDRD * Cockcroft-Gault

Usage

calculate_egfr_mdrd(age, sex, race = NA, creatinine)

Arguments

age	Age, in years
sex	Sex
race
creatinine

Value

a numeric vector with eGFR (ml/min/1.73m^2)

Examples

calculate_egfr_ckdepi(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=0.6) # 118
calculate_egfr_mdrd(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=0.6) # 142.6

calculate_egfr_ckdepi(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=1) # 92
calculate_egfr_mdrd(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=1)   # 79

calculate_egfr_ckdepi(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=1.5) # 56
calculate_egfr_mdrd(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=1.5) # 49

calculate_egfr_ckdepi(age=50, sex="Male", creatinine=2.0) # 40
calculate_egfr_mdrd(age=50, sex="Male", race="white", creatinine=2.0) # 35.5
calculate_egfr_mdrd(age=50, sex="Male",  creatinine=2.0) # 35.5
