Frequently asked questions

What does eGFR tell me?

It estimates how well your kidneys filter blood. Higher is generally better; a single value isn't a diagnosis — kidney health is judged over time.

Why is race not used?

The 2021 CKD-EPI equation is race-free, following current guidance to make estimates fairer and more consistent.
