Abstract | BACKGROUND: OBJECTIVE: To determine the correlation between glomerular filtration rate using the MDRD formula, CKD-EPI and Cockcroft-Gault and that obtained through the urine creatinine clearance 24 h in patients with common variable immunodeficiency who are treated with IVIG. PATIENTS AND METHOD: A transversal, observational and descriptive study that included 19 patients with common variable immunodeficiency, 12 women and 7 men, mean age 36 years, was done. Descriptive statistics with mean, median, mode and standard deviation was used. To measure the concordance of the measurements for quantitative variables intraclass correlation coefficient was used and to determine the correlation between the stages of renal function with different formulas kappa index was calculated. RESULTS: The values of the intraclass correlation coefficient showed a good correlation between creatinine clearance in 24 h urine with CKDEPI, mediocre with MDRD and nil with the Cockroft-Gault formula. CONCLUSIONS: Glomerular filtration rate obtained with CKD-EPI proved to be partially most useful, with a good correlation in relation to urine creatinine clearance in 24 h. Its routine use is recommended over other formulas in common variable immunodeficiency patients with suspected renal disease secondary to the use of IVIG.
