What Will Cause A Patient’s Glomerular Filtration Rate GFR To Decrease?
What Will Cause A Patient’s Glomerular Filtration Rate GFR To Decrease? Causes of Decreased Glomerular Filtration Rate Decreased GFR can be the result of prerenal, renal, and postrenal causes. Because of this, it is important to rule out prerenal (e.g., dehydration, decreased cardiac output) and postrenal (e.g., urinary tract obstruction, rupture) causes before measuring GFR.
