Description:
A comprehensive, vectorised toolkit for estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and creatinine clearance from serum creatinine, cystatin C, or both. Implements adult, paediatric, and neonatal equations, including the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) equations (2009, 2012, 2021), the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation, Cockcroft-Gault, the European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) equations, the Full Age Spectrum (FAS) equations, the Lund-Malmoe equations, the Berlin Initiative Study (BIS) equations, the Schwartz bedside equation, the Chronic Kidney Disease in Children Under 25 (CKiD U25) equations, the Caucasian, Asian, Paediatric, and Adult (CAPA) cystatin C equation, and a neonatal equation. Helpers for body surface area, chronic kidney disease (CKD) staging following the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) guideline, and unit conversions are included. Methods are described in Levey et al. (2009) <doi:10.7326/0003-4819-150-9-200905050-00006>, Inker et al. (2021) <doi:10.1056/NEJMoa2102953>, and Pottel et al. (2021) <doi:10.7326/M20-4366>. Inspired by the 'kidney.epi' package.
