I just got a GFR result of 65 is this low or normal ? Actually, this number is lower than the normal level. If you want to know more details about it or have similar question, read on please.As we all know, the key function of kidney is to filter the toxins and wastes in blood out of our body. So in clinic, according to the GFR level we can diagnose which stage the disease is in.
In clinic, when your GFR level is higher than 90ml/min that means your kidney function is normal, once it lower than this number, that may indicate your disease has been damaged in some degree. Usually, the stages of CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) are mainly based on measured or estimated GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate). There are five stages but kidney function is normal in Stage 1, and minimally reduced in Stage 2.
Stages of kidney disease are:
| Stage | GFR* |
| 1 | 90+ |
| 2 | 60-89 |
|
3A 3B |
45-59 30-44 |
| 4 | 15-29 |
| 5 | <15 or on dialysis |
* All GFR values are normalized to an average surface area (size) of 1.73m2
From this stages of kidney disease table, we can see that GFR 65 is lower than the normal level and now this disease is in stage 2, and almost stage 3. So for people with this situation, they should take measures right now to delay the progression of this disease, even reverse it.
