POS-230 COMPARISON OF MEASURED GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE BY PLASMA IOHEXOL CLEARANCE WITH EXISTING EQUATIONS OF ESTIMATING GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE IN INDIAN SUBJECTS

Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is a basis of diagnosis and severity of renal diseases. Currently used estimating GFR equations are ethnicity- specific and have not been validated in Indian population. We evaluated the performance of the existing eGFR equations for assessment of GFR in Indians using plasma clearance of Iohexol method.
