Kidney Function:
Kidneys are bean-shaped excretory organs located near the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. The kidneys remove toxins out of the body. In a simple way the kidneys can be compared with a sieve. When kidneys become sick, they cannot perform its usual filtration activities, a number of metabolic waste products therefore accumulate in the blood. Measuring level of some of these chemicals in the blood can give us an idea about the functional status of our kidney. Most commonly used markers in day- to- day clinical practice are Urea and Creatinine.
GFR-is called Glomerular Filtration Rate and is a tool to measure kidney function.
To estimate GFR,one need to put Serum Creatinine,Body weight,Age,Race in GFR calculator and calculate GFR.GFR Calculator is available at our home page.
