Creatinine Clearance

Cockcroft-Gault equation

Clinical notes
  • For estimation only — not a substitute for clinical judgment. Not validated in pregnancy, acute kidney injury, or rapidly changing renal function.
  • Cockcroft-Gault uses actual body weight, but tends to overestimate CrCl in obese patients. If height is provided, ideal and adjusted body weight estimates will also be shown.
  • Adjusted body weight (IBW + 0.4·(ABW − IBW)) is commonly preferred when BMI ≥ 30.
  • Height is optional — leave it blank to skip BMI/IBW/adjusted calculations.
