Kidney Care

Kidney Care app has been developed by mData S.A. in close cooperation with MERCK.
This app is not a validated diagnostic test. Calculations made with this app, results, and recommendations are for information purposes only.
The app is calculating eGFR to evaluate kidney function before administration of cisplatin. It uses the 2009 CKD-EPI Creatinine equation for eGFR calculation based on the recommendation of KDIGO1
The 2009 CKD-EPI Creatinine equation determines eGFR based on plasma creatinine, age, sex, race, and a standard body surface of 1.73m2.
Plasma Creatinine input is possible in both µmol/l and mg/dl.
Together with the eGFR result, a recommendation about cisplatin use based on Ahn et al.2. is displayed. Nevertheless, always consult the local cisplatin SMPC.
