Comparison of glomerular filtration rate measured by plasma sample technique, Cockroft Gault method and Gates′ method in voluntary kidney donors and renal transplant recipients

Abstract

Calculation of GFR plays a vital role in the management of renal patients, hence it was noted that Gates GFR may not be a reliable method of calculation. SPSM was more reliable. DPSM is reliable but cumbersome. It is difficult to accurately calculate GFR without a gold standard.
