Bjork et al revised the Lund-Malmo equations to be inclusive of pediatric populations. The authors are from Lund University at Malmo and multiple other institutions in Europe.
Patient selection: pediatric or adult
Parameters:
(1) adjusted serum creatinine in µmol/L
(2) sex of patient
(3) age of the patient
eGFR in mL/min/1.73 sq m based on Lund-Malmo revised equation with creatinine adjusted to age 18 =
= EXP(X + Y + Z)
Sex
Adjusted Creatinine
Value of X
female
< 150 µmol/L
(0.0121 * (150 - (adjust creat))) + 2.50
female
>= 150 µmol/L
2.50 - (0.926 * LN((adj creat)/150))
male
< 180 µmol/L
(0.00968 * (180 - (adjust creat))) + 2.56
male
>- 180 µmol/L
2.56 - (0.926 * LN((adj creat)/180))
Y =
= -0.0158 * MAX((age),18)
Z =
= 0.438 * LN(MAX((age),18))
