atinine is
secreted to a nonnegligible extent by renal tubules, and this biases to
some extent the use of creatinine clearance to estimate GFR.

Thierry,
Thanks for directing me to the results of your 12 selected young men who
had creatinine clearance greater than sinistrin clearance. The in depth
review by the National Kidney Foundation (NKF 2000a) reported the
results of several large studies comparing Cockcroft & Gault CLcr

This is just to express some objection to your last sentence below:
> In children with more or less normal renal function

> This is different f
to calculate CRCL for , the method used for serum creatinine and whether
you have some renally impaired children or not.
Hope this helps

Dear Mahesh,
As any model the original equation of Schwartz is evolving over the years and
as more data is gathered.
The original paper had only one k :

Dear NMusers,
I am having difficulty with the Schwartz formulae for computing GFR in kids.
Some references
Dear NMusers,
I am having difficulty with the Schwartz formulae for computing GFR in kids.
Some references state that the formula gives GFR in mL/min while others say it
is mL/min/1.73 m². Also the value of k varies between references. This is what
I plan on using. Are these formulas in the righ
