Single sample estimates of renal clearances.
Thirty adult patients were investigated with 36 125I Hippuran and 40 51Cr EDTA single injection clearance studies. "Volumes of distribution" obtained from single samples have been correlated with the slope clearances and regression equations have been determined. From these equations it is possible to determine glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) from single plasma samples and the method is sufficiently accurate for routine application.
