Jacque Smith and Cassie Spodak, CNN, April 27, 2021 When she first learned about race correction, Naomi Nkinsi was one of five Black medical students in her class at the University of Washington. Nkinsi remembers the professor talking about an equation doctors use to measure kidney function. The professor said eGFR equations adjust for several variables, including the patient’s age, sex and race. When it comes to race, doctors have only two options: Black or “Other.” Nkinsi was dumbfounded. “It was really shocking to me,” says Nkinsi, now a third-year medical and masters of public health student, “to come into school and see that not only is there interpersonal racism between patients and physicians … there’s actually racism built into the very algorithms that we use.”
