Recommendations
As issued by the authors
New creatinine-based glomerular filtration rate (GFR) equation: implementation facilitated by low cost and ease of incorporation into electronic health records; key barrier is lack of direct evidence in critically ill patients
Cystatin C-based GFR estimation: barriers are higher cost, lack of test availability in most laboratories, and influence of inflammation on concentrations
Further research needed evaluating GFR equations in critically ill patients and novel approaches to dynamic kidney function estimation
