Sign in with GoogleWhat does the glomerular filtration rate of 40 indicate?
This is moderate kindey disease
Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome. If these values are indicating GFR,glom.filtration rate then if there is 40 it means that there is moderate chronic kidney disease and it should not lead to some fast bad consequances but you should check potassium,kreatinin and urea too. YOu need to drink more fluids to facilitate kidney function, avoid salty food and do frequrent follow ups and everything should be fine. Wish you good health- Regards
