Calculated creatinine clearance using the CKD-EPI-formula shows a reliable prediction and high correlation to 24-h-urine in patients with diabetes mellitus but underrates systematically potentially leading to withdrawal or no prescription of oral antidiabetics

Introduction: To reliably assess glomerular filtration is of vital importance if oral antidiabetics are used. We compared the CKD-EPI model, a clinically established calculation model to assess creatinine clearance (CreaClear) with specimens from 24-h urine.Method: Inpatients (university hospital) with diabetes mellitus received a 24-h urine collection (24hClear) or since 2013 calculated CreaClear using CKD-EPI-formula (EPI). From 2014 to 2015 values of ...
