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

CONCLUSION: Creatinine 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. PMID: 31479650 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
