Background
Hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) patients undergo pre‐ transplant renal function evaluation to confirm transplant eligibility and tailor pharmacotherapy. There is limited evidence regarding the most accurate method of estimating creatinine clearance (CrCl) within this patient population and no studies exist that evaluate the weight utilized within the Cockcroft‐Gault (CG) equation in...
Introduction
New estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) equations using serum creatinine and/or cystatin C have been derived to eliminate adjustment by perceived Black ancestry. We sought to analyze the performance of newer eGFR equations among Black living kidney donor candidates.
Methods
Black candidates (n = 64) who had measured iothalamate GFR between January 2015 and October 2021 were...
