Outside the USA, the 2009 CKD-EPI equation should not be used with the race coefficient, even though the 2009 CKD-EPI equation is not sufficiently accurate either way (<75%). Thus we endorse the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes guidelines to use exogenous filtration markers when this may impact clinical conduct.
