The Calvert equation calculates a dose expected to bring the patient to the target AUC given their glomerular filtration rate (GFR). The original equation was developed on a data set of 18 individuals with GFR of 33-136 ml/min.
Arguments
- target_auc
target AUC, in mg/ml-min, typically between 2-8 mg/ml-min
- gfr
glomerular filtration rate, in ml/min. See also
