eGFR (MDRD) Price in Bangladesh

What is eGFR (MDRD)?

eGFR (MDRD) estimates the glomerular filtration rate using the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) formula. It assesses kidney function by calculating the rate at which kidneys filter waste from the blood, factoring in creatinine levels, age, sex, and race.

This test helps diagnose and monitor chronic kidney disease (CKD). Results are reported in mL/min/1.73m², with lower values indicating impaired kidney function.

Regular monitoring aids in early intervention and treatment.

What to expect & how to prepare

eGFR (MDRD) is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your eGFR (MDRD) result rather than self-diagnosing.
