Hello friends welcome to my channel, My name is Akash Prajapati, Today's topic is EGFR Test (Estimated
Glomerular Filtration Rate).
The GFR test is also called an estimated GFR (eGFR) test or calculated GFR (cGFR) test. This test estimates how much blood is leaving the glomeruli in one minute. Glomeruli are a group of capillaries present in the kidney, which filter waste materials from the blood so that the nutrients essential for the body such as proteins etc. are not damaged. GFR test is usually done to know how your kidneys are functioning. It also helps in determining the severity of the disease in patients suffering from chronic kidney diseases.
A healthy person's kidneys can filter 189 liters of blood and produce about 1.9 liters of urine a day.
Your doctor may ask you to have a GFR test if you are at high risk for kidney disease because of:
• frequent urinary tract infections
• diabetes
• heart disease
• high blood pressure
• Urinary blockage
• family members having kidney disease
GFR test may also be recommended for people who show the following symptoms of kidney diseases:
• decrease in urine volume
• swelling around the eyes
• Swelling of the face, wrists, stomach, thighs and
ankles
• foamy, bloody, or coffee-colored urine
• burning sensation when urinating or abnormal fluid
• discharge
• Change in frequency of urination at night
• pain in the middle of the waist below the ribs
• urinating more or less than normal
• feeling itchy
• Tiredness
• difficulty concentrating
• loss of appetite
• vomiting and nausea
• swelling or numbness in hands and feet
• skin darkening
