NSAID Renal Toxicity Risk Score

Score risk of NSAID-induced acute kidney injury using baseline eGFR, diuretic/ACE/ARB co-prescription, volume depletion, heart failure, age, and duration of NSAID use.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Score risk of NSAID-induced acute kidney injury using baseline eGFR, diuretic/ACE/ARB co-prescription, volume depletion, heart failure, age, and duration of NSAID use

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Baseline eGFR — The baseline egfr recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Diuretic/ACE/ARB co-prescription — The diuretic/ace/arb co-prescription recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Volume depletion — The volume depletion recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Heart failure — The heart failure recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Age — The age recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Duration of NSAID use — The duration of nsaid use recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the nsaid renal toxicity result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the baseline eGFR, diuretic/ACE/ARB co-prescription, volume depletion, heart failure, age, duration of NSAID use for the scenario you are assessing. Score risk of NSAID-induced acute kidney injury using baseline eGFR, diuretic/ACE/ARB co-prescription, volume depletion, heart failure, age, and duration of NSAID use. Use the nsaid renal toxicity result to inform your calculation.
