What does a GFR of 118 mean?

A Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) of 118 mL/min indicates that kidney function is above the normal range, which typically falls between 90 and 120 mL/min for a healthy adult. This suggests efficient kidney filtering and removal of waste products from the blood. However, it is essential to consider individual factors like age, sex, and overall health, as well as other lab results, to assess kidney function comprehensively. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized interpretation and advice.
