Tracks kidney function using CKD-EPI 2021 (race-free) eGFR formula, stages CKD G1-G5, monitors albuminuria categories A1-A3, and calculates eGFR decline rate. Use when the user provides creatinine or eGFR results or asks about kidney health.
Record creatinine, eGFR, and albuminuria indicators. Auto-calculate CKD-EPI eGFR, determine CKD stage, monitor decline rate, and provide follow-up reminders.
Calculate eGFR from serum creatinine (Scr), sex, and age.

Unit conversion: Chinese labs report creatinine in umol/L. Convert: Scr (mg/dL) = Scr (umol/L) / 88.4
Steps:
memory/health/_health-profile.md to compute ageExample: Male, 52 years, creatinine 95 umol/L
| Stage | eGFR (mL/min/1.73m^2) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| G1 | >= 90 | Normal or high |
| G2 | 60-89 | Mildly decreased |
| G3a | 45-59 | Mildly to moderately decreased |
| G3b | 30-44 | Moderately to severely decreased |
| G4 | 15-29 | Severely decreased |
| G5 | < 15 | Kidney failure |
Stage change detection: Compare current vs. previous stage. If stage worsens (number increases), trigger "stage progression" alert. Pay special attention to G2->G3a and G3b->G4 transitions.
| Category | ACR (mg/g) | Description |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | < 30 | Normal to mildly increased |
| A2 | 30-300 | Moderately increased (microalbuminuria) |
| A3 | > 300 | Severely increased (macroalbuminuria) |
Trigger alert on A2->A3 transition indicating worsening kidney damage.
Formula: Annual decline rate = (previous eGFR - current eGFR) / time interval in years
Decline rate classification:
| Rate (mL/min/1.73m^2/year) | Grade | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| < 1 | Stable | Normal physiological decline |
| 1-3 | Slow decline | Continue monitoring |
| 3-5 | Moderate decline | Intensify management, consider treatment adjustment |
| > 5 | Rapid decline | Seek immediate medical attention, active intervention |
Steps:
memory/health/items/kidney-function.md ## History tableRequire at least 2 eGFR readings >= 3 months apart for meaningful calculation. Single-interval rates may be affected by acute factors (dehydration, medications).
| CKD Stage | Frequency | Tests |
|---|---|---|
| G1-G2 | Annually | Creatinine, eGFR, urinalysis, ACR |
| G3a | Every 6 months | Creatinine, eGFR, ACR, electrolytes, CBC, PTH |
| G3b-G4 | Quarterly | Creatinine, eGFR, ACR, electrolytes, CBC, PTH, calcium/phosphorus, lipids |
| G5 | Monthly | Full renal panel + dialysis-related markers |
