Program is based on the
following:
Estimating Creatinine Clearance (ml/min)
Cockcroft and Gault equation:
CrCl = (140 - age) x IBW / (Scr x
72) (x 0.85 for females)
Estimate Ideal body
weight in (kg)
Males: IBW = 50 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch over 5
feet.
Females: IBW = 45.5 kg + 2.3 kg for each inch over 5 feet.
