CrCL – CG routine practice: Estimated CrCL using the Cockcroft-Gault equation in which ideal body weight is routine, actual body weight is utilized if a patient weighs less than his/her ideal body weight, and adjusted body weight used when patient's actual body weight is greater than 130% of ideal body weight. CrCL – CG actual body weight only: Estimated CrCL using the Cockcroft-Gault equation in which only actual body weight is used in the calculation. CG = Cockcroft Gault equation; CrCL = creatine clearance; DOAC = direct oral anticoagulant. The American Journal of Medicine  , e365-e366DOI: ( /j.amjmed ) Copyright © 2017 Elsevier Inc.
