QuestionChoice
GFR = (Urine Flow Rate x Urine Concentration of Inulin) / Plasma concentration of inulin

GFR = (1.1mL/min x 11mmol/L) / 0.11mmol/L

The Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) is the volume of liquid that is filtered by the kidneys per unit of time. It is measured in mL/min, with a substance called inulin, which is freely filtered by the kidneys.


The equation to calculate GFR is:


GFR x Plasma concentration of inulin = Urine Flow Rate x Urine Concentration of Inulin.


If a patient's plasma inulin concentration was 0.11mmol/L, their urine concentration of inulin was 11mmol/L and their urine flow rate was 1.1mL/min, what would this patient's GFR be?
