Development of a formula for estimated glomerular filtration rate in pregnant women from physiological hyperfiltration of serum creatinine
Abstract Increased body fluids during pregnancy complicates the application of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) formulas that are based on body surface area. Furthermore, gestational renal dysfunction cannot be identified if the serum creatinine (SCr) concentration is within the non-pregn...
