Stages of Kidney Disease
The Irish Nephrology Society currently recommends classifying Chronic Kidney Disease into five stages based on a measure estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). eGFR is a test that is used to assess how well your kidneys are working. It is based on age, sex, and blood creatinine level.
| CKD Stage | eGFR |
| 1 | >90ml/min/1.73m2 |
| 2 | 60-89ml/min/1.73m2 |
| 3 | 30-59ml/min/1.73m2 |
| 4 | 15-29ml/min/1.73m2 |
| 5 | <15ml/min/1.73m2 |
