You want to evaluate a male patient's kidney function and have decided to use the creatinine clearance rate as a proxy for glomerular filtration rate. You asked your patient to collect their urine for 24 hours and you also ordered a blood serum creatinine test. The lab sent you the following information: 1050 mg creatinine in the 24 hour urine sample 1600 mL urine collected in 24 hours 0.9 mg/dL creatinine in serum 1.75 correction factor for patient's surface area a. Calculate the creatinine clearance rate for your patient. b. Evaluate renal function based on the table below 5 Stages of Kidney Disease Kidney Function/GFR Description Stage 1 > 90% Normal or High Function Stage 2 60-89% Mildly Decreased Function Stage 3 Mild to Moderately Decreased Function 30-59% Stage 4 Severely Decreased Function 15-29% Stage 5 < 15% Kidney Failure
