Derived and tested a serum-creatinine, age and weight equation for predicting creatinine clearance, with a female adjustment.
Scientific scope
The record is the exact two-author 1976 paper and its derivation and validation cohorts. It is not a direct GFR measurement, is not uniformly accurate across all body compositions and clinical populations, and does not absorb later estimating equations.
