Accuracy of the estimation of glomerular filtration rate within a population of critically ill patients.
CONCLUSIONS: Estimates of GFR using CG, CKD-EPI and MDRD formulae are flawed in the critically ill with normal sCr, significantly underestimating renal function in those with ARC and overestimating it in those with normal or decreased 8h-CLCR. Globally, the population exhibited ARC on more than half of the ICU admission days.
