nameGlomerular filtration rate/1.73 sq M.predicted [Volume Rate/Area] in Serum, Plasma or Blood by Creatinine and Cystatin C-based formula (CKD-EPI 2021)
descriptionGlomerular filtration rate (GFR) is considered the best overall index of kidney function; however measured GFR is not practical in the routine clinical setting. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a suitable alternative and can be calculated for adults >= 18 years using an equation incorporating the patient's age, gender, and measured serum/plasma/blood creatinine only (eGFRcr) [LOINC: 98979-8] or both serum/plasma/blood creatinine and serum/plasma cystatin C (eGFRcr-cys) (this term). The serum/plasma/blood creatinine value is based on a measurement procedure that is traceable to the isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) reference measurement procedure for creatinine, and the serum/plasma/blood cystatin C value is based on a measurement procedure that is traceable to the certified reference material ERM-DA471/IFCC from the Joint Research Center of the European Commission. The 2021 CKD-EPI equations used for eGFRcr and eGFRcr-cys do not have a race term as does the older estimating equations that they replace.[https://www.nejm.org/doi/pdf/10.1056/NEJMoa2102953]

propertyArVRat  =  Volume Rate/Area
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemSer/Plas/Bld
    Ser  =  Serum
    Plas  =  Plasma
    Bld  =  Whole blood
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
methodCreatinine and Cystatin C-based formula (CKD-EPI 2021)
