Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) - Creatinine-Cystatin C equation
Estimates of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) that are based on serum creatinine are routinely used; however, they are imprecise, potentially leading to the overdiagnosis of chronic kidney disease. Cystatin C is an alternative filtration marker for estimating GFR.

Conditional information

The GFR was calculated using the creatinine-cystatin C equation, the GFR can be estimated using other formulas such as the cystatin C equation, the Cockcroft-Gault equation, or the MDRD equation. 

The glomerular filtration rate should only be assessed in a steady state condition for reliable results.
