CKD-EPI 2021 uses a female multiplier of 1.012 and different κ/α.

How to use this calculator

  1. Copy creatinine from the lab (mg/dL).
  2. Enter age and sex as specified by the equation.
  3. Read eGFR and a KDIGO GFR category sketch.
  4. Cystatin-C and pediatric equations are not on this page.

Results explained

CKD-EPI 2021 dropped the race coefficient. κ is 0.7 (female) or 0.9 (male); α is −0.241 or −0.302.

Quick reference: KDIGO GFR categories

Categories describe GFR, not a full CKD stage (albuminuria matters too).

Units are mL/min/1.73 m². Confirm the lab’s equation on the report.

How the estimate is built

142 × min(Scr/κ,1)^α × max(Scr/κ,1)^(−1.200) × 0.9938^age × (1.012 if female).

Example scenario

Scr 1.0 mg/dL, age 50, male → about 89 mL/min/1.73 m² (G2 on this sketch).

FAQ

Why no race box?

CKD-EPI 2021 is race-free by design.

µmol/L labs?

Divide by 88.4 to get mg/dL first.

Dosing?
