In many aspects of diagnosis and therapy it is useful to have a numerical score to evaluate the function of the kidney and liver. Sometimes it is not possible to have a 24-hour urinary collection to be able to make an accurate creatinine clearance: the application "assessment of liver function and renal clearance" allows you to make an estimate of renal function with the EPI-CKD formula considering age , sex, complexion and creatinine of the patient. In fact, the formula gives an estimate of the GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate) which we can equate, as a numerical value, to the creatinine clearance since the differences are minimal.
The classification of Child and Pugh is a three-level scale of increasing severity, class A, class B, class C and defines a score based on symptoms and hepatobiliary tests to graduate liver failure in chronic liver diseases.
They are both tests that must be inserted in an in-depth clinical and instrumental context and cannot be taken as an isolated and absolute value. Useful for example in the dosage of many drugs, for example antibiotics, the dosage of which must be calibrated according to the renal and liver function.
The application runs on mobile phones and tablets in an Android environment.
