INTRODUCTION: Accurate assessment of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is important in the critically ill. Kinetic estimate of GFR (keGFR) considers the changes of creatinine, creatinine production rate, and volume of distribution hence postulated to be a more accurate estimate of GFR, where there ar...
