Phenotype for identifying a cohort of patients with mild-to-moderate chronic kidney disease for several analyses investigating the effects of factors such as etiology or blood pressure control on kidney function outcomes.
Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)
(2024-01) Children's Hospital of Philadelphia; PEDSnet Data Coordinating Center
A function to derive the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) for a cohort of patients with existing serum creatinine and height measurements. eGFR values can be used to evaluate the presence and severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and other kidney related conditions. Downloadable content for this Phenotype includes two R files (cohorts.R and driver.R) and a specs folder, which includes the related concept sets linked below.
