For transplants to be effective and kidney donation practices to be protected, a precise evaluation of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in
potential living kidney donors (PLKDs) is necessary. Many people consider scintigraphy-measured GFR (mGFR) to be the clinical reference
standard. A number of estimated GFR (eGFR) formulas have been created, including the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration
(CKD-EPI), Cockcroft–Gault (CG), and the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD); however, none of them have been specifically validated
for Vietnamese PLKDs.
