This app calculates creatinine clearance in 3 different ways to easily compare the results. The first equation uses the Cockcroft-Gault equation and displays the results for Actual Body Weight, Ideal Body Weight (IBW calculated via the Devine formula) and Adjusted Body Weight. The calculated BMI (Body Mass Index) is also displayed to assist in selecting the appropriate result, as the result based on the IBW may be more accurate in obese patients. The second result is based on the 4-variable MDRD (Modification of Diet in Renal Disease) formula which is validated in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. The final result is based on the CKD-EPI (Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration) formula which may be more accurate than the MDRD equation.

The results in this application have been tested against the GlobalRPh online calculator.
