Did you know the 2021 CKD-EPI creatinine-Cystatin C eGFR calculator is this complex? I expected it to be nuanced, but today I learned just how intricate the interactions are. Not surprising, though—it is the most accurate estimator we have.

What an incredible #transplant year at Mayo Clinic Arizona. Our dedicated teams were able to facilitate more than 900 organs transplants. 40 heart transplants, 25 kidney-pancreas, 525 kidneys, and 317 liver transplants. Truly a monumental coordinated effort from every part of our organization. We thank the organ donors and their families especially, and appreciate the trust of our patients. More to follow in 2025!
