GFR calculator
The GFR calculator below uses the following equation:

GFR = 170 (Scr)-0.999 * (Age)-0.176 * (BUN)-0.17 * (Albumin)0.318.

This equation is derived from data obtained in major study by Levey et al.:
A More Accurate Method To Estimate Glomerular Filtration Rate from Serum Creatinine. A New Prediction Equation Andrew S. Levey, MD; Juan P. Bosch, MD; Julia Breyer Lewis, MD; Tom Greene, PhD; Nancy Rogers, MS; David Roth, MD, for the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study Group.   Ann Intern Med. 1999;130:461-470.    click here for details
