User reviews

eGFR but no BSA

This gives you the current 2021 CKD-EPI calculator, however, it does not include the ability to factor in BSA (body surface area - height/weight). The National Kidney Foundation web site has the 2021 calculator with the ability to include BSA. If you do not factor in BSA, you may get a less precise eGFR value. Most national labs also do not factor in BSA, so you might have a conversation with your physician to see her/his thoughts. Just accepting the basic CKD-EPI 2021 formula, may place you in a GFR category and ACR category, you do not deserve. The discussion within this app notes the necessity to factor in BSA to the CKD-EPI 2021 equation, but the equation included with this app does not allow this option.

Utterly useless unlike the calculator on their website.

I need - no, REQUIRE - a GFR calculator that lets me individualize results to my patient’s individual height and weight. Too many of my patients are way off of ‘standard’ parameters for that to make sense. I had an ancient app that would do this but it no longer works on the current iOS upgrade. I was hoping this app would do so since the cGFR calculator on their website has that as an option. No such luck - and that makes this app useless to me. It was removed immediately after downloading.

Confusion

Just clear when we select male/female and black/other the grey option is selected one or the white one?

Nurse

Very handy, but there is a flaw that must be addressed. The race and sex fields change when they should not. Tap on “male” for example and tap on on it a second, third, fourth time. Why does it change back and forth and back and forth? Please fix that behavior. Thanks.
