Formula Comparison
Most current, race-free formula recommended by guidelines
Traditional formula, may underestimate at higher GFR levels
Pediatric formula for children aged 0-17 years
Clinical Significance
- Normal GFR:90-120 mL/min/1.73 m² in healthy adults
- CKD diagnosis:GFR <60 for ≥3 months
- Referral to nephrology:Usually at GFR <30
- Dialysis consideration:GFR <15 or symptomatic
Limitations
- Less accurate in extremes of age, body size, or muscle mass
- May be inaccurate in acute kidney injury
- Requires stable creatinine levels
- Consider cystatin C-based equations for better accuracy

What is a GFR online calculator?
A GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate) Calculator estimates how well your kidneys are filtering blood. It uses your age, sex, and serum creatinine levels to provide an estimated GFR (eGFR) and identify your CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) stage. This tool is essential for monitoring kidney health in both adults and children.
How the GFR kidney function calculator Works
Inputs Required
Age, Sex, Serum Creatinine (mg/dL or μmol/L), Pediatric or Adult selection.
Formulas Used
CKD-EPI (most accurate for adults), MDRD (commonly used in CKD monitoring), and Schwartz Formula (for pediatric GFR calculation).
What Happens Next
After entering details, the calculator estimates your eGFR and identifies CKD stage if applicable.
Why Use a GFR age calculator?
