Effective renal plasma flow (ERPF)
The flow of plasma through the kidneys; often measured by p-aminohippurate (PAH) clearance and expressed in volume per unit of time (mL/min). The ERPF is less than the true renal plasma flow (RPF) because plasma flow through renal connective and adipose tissue is not measured and the extraction of PAH, although high (>0. 9), is not complete.
