Ignored. This forces all parameters to be named, which is safer. |
scr.mg.dL |
Numeric. Serum creatinine in mg/dL. |
weight.kg |
Numeric. Body weight in kilograms. |
age.yr |
Numeric. Age in years. |
is.female |
Logical. TRUE for females, FALSE for males. |
scr.umol.L |
Numeric. Alternative specification of serum creatinine in umol/L. |
scr.conversion.factor |
Numeric. A factor for converting serum creatinine from umol/L to mg/dL. |
All arguments can be vectors.
A numeric vector containing the estimated creatinine clearance in mL/min.
