Background: Deviations in serum creatinine (SCr), due to its determination using a Jaffe or an enzymatic method, have an effect on kidney disease detection and staging. It is not yet clear how large this effect is in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). SCr measurement differences are of particular importance here to evaluate the graft function. Methods: The results of all parallel SCr measurements (Jaffe and enzymatic method) of adult outpatient KTRs in the same serum sample at the University Hospital Essen (Germany) between January 2020 and October 2023 were evaluated. A Bland-Altman plot with 95% limits of agreement (LoA) was used to assess the difference between the Jaffe and the enzymatic SCr (eSCr). For all patients, we used the CKD-EPI 2009 and EKFC formula, and for patients ≥ 70 years, we also used the BIS1 formula for the determination of eGFR. Results: A total of 12,081 parallel SCr measurements from 1243 KTRs were analyzed, where 61% were male and the median age was 53 years. On average, Jaffe SCr was 0.03 mg/dL higher than eSCr (LoA -0.16; 0.21 mg/dL). On average, the eGFR determined by Jaffe SCr was 1.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 lower than the eGFR determined by eSCr (LoA -9.5; 5.7 mL/min/1.73 m2). The comparison of eGFR between the two SCr methods revealed a different CKD stage in 1589 (13%) of all analyzed measurements, most frequently between G2/G3a (41%) and G3a/G3b (24%). When using the EKFC and BIS1 formulas, there were approximately the same number of measurements leading to a different CKD stage. Conclusions: In more than every tenth SCr determination in outpatient KTRs, the difference between the Jaffe and enzymatic methods had an influence on the assignment to a CKD stage. This effect was comparably pronounced for all eGFR formulas applied.
