Source: OPTN/SRTR Data as of August 1, 2003.

(+) = Values not determined due to insufficient follow-up.

(-) = Values not determined since there were no transplants in the category.

Cohorts are transplants performed during 2000-2001 for 3 month and 1 year; 1998-1999 for 3 year; and 1996-1997 for 5 year survival.

Graft survival follows individual transplants until graft failure.

Counts for patient and graft survival are different because a patient may have more than one transplant for a type of organ.

Center volume = Center's yearly transplants performed during the base period, based on liver transplants.

Multi-organ transplants are excluded.
