Estimated glomerular filtration rate using a point of care measure of creatinine in patients with iohexol determinate GFR

ConclusionCreatinine measured with the POC has an acceptable performance when used with the CKD-EPI equation to estimate GFR. Its ability to detect GFR <60 mL/min/1.73m2 is not significantly different from the classical Roche assay. StatSensor Creatinine (Nova Biomedical) can be used for GFR screening before contrast media injection.
