Enter the Patient's details in the spaces provided above and click the "calculate" button to obtain results. Note that the calculations are based on the following equations.

FRU=(preurea-posturea)/preurea

PCR Male - (((preposturea-posturea)*0.58*actualweight*24/interdialtime)*0.182/idealweight)+0.17
PCR Female- (((preposturea-posturea)*0.55*actualweight*24/interdialtime)*0.182/idealweight)+0.17

This is an experimental script and results should be treated with due care and consideration.
