Whether the glomerular filtration rate of 77 ml/min is dangerous or not should be analyzed in combination with its etiology and treatment effect and other factors, and should not be generalized.
Glomerular filtration rate refers to the amount of plasma fluid filtered out through the glomerulus per unit time, reflecting the ability of the kidneys to excrete metabolic wastes from the blood. The value is affected by age and sex. The normal value of glomerular filtration rate is 80-120 ml/min, which is about 10% lower in women.
A physiologic decrease in glomerular filtration rate may occur with age, when a glomerular filtration rate of 77 ml/min is usually not dangerous.
If physiologic factors have been ruled out, and the patient has a combination of other morphological and functional changes such as hematuria and proteinuria, the patient should be considered for chronic kidney disease. If the patient is actively treated, it is usually not dangerous; if the patient is not treated in time or the treatment is not effective, the renal function progresses and may develop into uremia, which is more dangerous.
If patients find abnormal glomerular filtration rate, it is recommended to go to regular hospitals in time and give targeted treatment or therapy under the guidance of doctors.
