85625-2
LaboratoryKidney failure 5-year risk [Likelihood] by KFRE
Definition
The five-year "treated kidney failure" risk as calculated by the Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE), for patients with chronic kidney disease stages 3 to 5. "Treated kidney failure" is defined as kidney failure that is treated with either dialysis or kidney transplant. The KFRE includes the following variables: patient age, sex, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR). In this model, all variables are time-independent, in that the baseline measurement is used for all calculations. [PMID: 26757465]
