Report of Center-Specific Graft and Patient Survival Rates, 1991. Liver Data

摘要

For each liver program in the U.S. there is a page showing the number oftransplants performed between October 1, 1987 and December 31, 1989. There are also the number of those patients for which there is follow-up survival information and the 3 month and 12 month actual/expected graft and patient survival rates of those patients. The expected rates are those based on the overall patient characteristics of the transplant program (i.e. age, first or repeat transplant, recipient medical condition at time of transplant). There is a second page providing the number and percentage of patients with various characteristics. Each program also was given the choice of adding a third page explaining reasons for their survival rates.
