GFR on a blood test stands for Glomerular Filtration Rate. This test is used to used to test how well the kidneys are working. It estimates how much blood passes through the filters in the kidney, called the glomeruli, every minute.
The normal value for GFR is 130-140 ml /min of creatinine(a substance used to check kidney functioning)
glomerular filteration rate, this test is done to check the kidney function.
GFR stands for glomerular flow rate. It provides an index for the function of the kidneys.

What is the gfr non African American test?
60
What does a GFR of 49 mean?
The eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) is a number based on your blood test for creatinine. It tells how well your kidneys are working
What does a GFR of 96 mean?
it is normal gfr level.
What is low GFR AA mean?
the GFR EST is a blood test used to estimate the glomerular filtration rate without performing a 24 hour urine for creatinine clearance. It is a calculation involving the patient's serum creatinine, age, and sex. If the patient is African American the equation is adjusted to account for an African American's greater muscle mass. A Non- AA or non- African American would not require the adjustment. GFR (glomerular filtration rate) Non- AA (African American)
A physician is concerned that his patients kidneys are not working well. What tests might he order to test his hypothesis?
BUN, creatine, GFR
GFR blood test is low?
My husband is 72 - gfr is 64
What is the estimated Gfr non-African American blood test?
60
What does the medical abbreviation GFR E mean?
Est GFR is the estimated glomerular filtration rate. It's a calculation based on blood chemistry values to guess the patient's kidney function.
Does a person need a GFR blood test done before having a MRI?
Not always. Before a routine MRI scan no GFR test is needed. Some MRI scans will require an injection of a drug (contrast) which is used to highlight different aspects of blood supply. There is a small risk of this contrast affecting kidney function so some MRI centres test kidney function before administration. One such test is GFR
How is GFR regulated?
GFR is regulated by having the technicians doing the tests be educated in cleanliness and proper hygiene. The person who analyzes the test is also trained how to analyze the blood. GFR is the Glomerular Filtration Rate. It measures how well the kidneys are processing waste.

I am a caucasian female with a high gfr black blood result what does that mean?
The eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) is a number based on your blood test for creatinine. It tells how well your kidneys are workingIf you are "white," the "black" GFR norm does not apply to you. YOu can erase that result from your results page.
What does the GFR test for on the Comprehensive Metabolic Panel?
The GFR stands for glomerular filtration rate, and assesses kidney function.
What is the gfr non African American test?
60
What causes a high gfr level on lab test metabolic panel?
Healthy kidneys cause a high GFR level.

Do you have to fast for a GFR test?
No, you don't need to fast for the GFR, but there are usually other tests completed with the GFR that require fasting. Check with your health care provider for information specific to your situation.
