Calcium Creatinine Clearance Ratio is used in the diagnosis of FHH. Currently setting up parameters on the Host computer to make CCCR available. A question to ponder....

Formula (e.g. Hammersmith) appear to use Serum Calcium and not Adjusted Calcium (Pathology Harmonization) in CCCR calculations.
Does using Adj Ca make a significant difference? Does using Adj Ca introduce more error into the calculation (various formulae for Adj Ca) or reduce a potential error (low or elevated albumin levels).

Thanks
