Hello,
It is divided in to stages by glomerular filtration rate. means how much ml of blood passes in each minute through kidney.
Normal gfr is 125 ml/min. But in stage 3 it may 35-45ml/min. Means kidney function is reduced.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
