This equation computes the renal blood flow, RBF, from the renal plasma flow (as computed via the equation-in-equation for RPF1) and the volume percentage or red blood cells (the hematocrit).
Inputs to this equation are:
- U_"PAH" - the urine concentration of para-aminohuippurate in the urine sample
- P_"PAH" - the plasma concentration of para-aminohuippurate in the blood samplesample
- P_"PAH" - the plasma concentration of para-aminohuippurate in the blood samplesample
- HCT - the hematrocrit, also known as the packed cell volume (PCV) and the erythrocyte volume fraction (EVF)
