Abstract
Objectives: A noninvasive and accurate estimation of GFR is one of the holy grails of renal function evaluation. We analysed accuracy of CKD Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI), Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) and Mayo Clinic Quadratic (MCQ) equations to estimate GFR with reference to a standard GFR obtained by DTPA renal scan. Methods: Between June 2011 and June 2013, healthy adults underwent DTPA renal clearance studies as part of a routine work-up for potential kidney donation. 70 subjects had sufficient data to estimate GFR- including age, gender, Creatinine (Cr){based on average of 2 values obtained 2 weeks apart performed at the same hospital lab}. Results: Mean GFR obtained by DTPA, CKD-EPI, MDRD and MCQ were 93.4±13.4, 86.94±14.8, 83.0±17.6 and 104.5±10.27ml/min/1.73m2 respectively. All equations correlated well with DTPA-GFR (p< 0.01). The bias and mean absolute difference in ml/min per 1.73 m2 between calculated and measured GFR for CKD-EPI, MDRD, MCQ were -6.57 and 11.03, -10.45 and 14.75, +11.1 and 14.13 respectively. Percentage of values within 30% and 50% of predicted in each equations were - CKD-EPI: 71.4%; 91.4%, MDRD: 51.4%; 81.4%, MCQ: 57.1%; 81.4%. Conclusion: CKD-EPI had least bias and was more accurate within 30 and 50% of the measured GFR even though it frequently under estimated measured GFR. MCQ equation (developed for patients with preserved renal function) had least bias in subset of measured GFR>90ml/min. In potential donors, these equations may not be sufficient for estimating GFR. Further studies are needed to derive prediction equations in Indians with normal renal function.
