Research Notes on Creatinine Clearance Calculator (Obese)
The creatinine clearance calculator (obese) caculates the creatinine clearance levels in obese patients.1 The patient’s age, gender, serum creatinine level, height, and weight must be known to use the calculator.1 The result is based on the “Salazar-Corcoran Equation.”1
Fast Facts:
- The unit for weight is kg, and the unit for height is meters.1
- The formula for men is: [137 - age] x [(0.285 x weight(kg)) + (12.1 x height(m)2)]/(51 x SCr).1
- The formula for women is: [146 - age] x [(0.287 x weight(kg)) + (9.74 x height(m)2)]/(60 x SCr).1
