Estimation of Glomerular Filtration Rate

Professor Martin Flamant, a nephrologist at Bichat Hospital, provides an updated synthesis on a central issue in clinical nephrology: the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR).

During this INFIRE ‘Petit dej’ (Breakfast Meeting), Professor Flamant reviews the various methods for GFR estimation, their pathophysiological foundations, their limitations, as well as the most recent recommendations and their implications for clinical practice and research.

A didactic and essential session for a better understanding of the challenges related to the daily assessment of renal function.
