The eGFR (Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) is a calculated value derived from serum creatinine levels, age, gender, and sometimes body size to assess how efficiently the kidneys filter waste from the blood. eGFR is a key marker for diagnosing and staging chronic kidney disease (CKD), monitoring kidney function over time, and guiding treatment decisions. Lower eGFR values indicate reduced kidney function and may help identify early kidney damage even before symptoms appear.
