Comparing five equations to calculate estimated glomerular filtration rate to predict acute kidney injury following total joint arthroplasty

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is used as an indicator of renal function. The purpose of this study was (1) to assess each of the five equations that are...
