The eGFR blood test shows how well your kidneys are filtering waste from your blood. Higher values mean better kidney function. Lower values may be an early sign of kidney problems. The 2026 AHA/ACC guidelines use eGFR in the new PREVENT equations to predict heart disease risk, because kidney health directly affects cardiovascular outcomes.
Your kidneys have millions of tiny filters that remove waste and excess fluid from your blood. The eGFR test estimates how much blood those filters can clean per minute. It uses your creatinine level along with your age and sex to calculate a score.
