1
Transplants during the time period indicated in the last row of the table.
2 Observed surival rates use the Kaplan-Meier method to estimate outcomes for patients for whom complete follow-up is not expected; see Analytic Methods for more details. Because different cohorts are followed for each time period, it is possible for reported 3-year survival to exceed 1-year survival.
3 The survival rate that would be expected for the patients served by this center, given the characteristic mix of the recipient and donor (age, disease, blood type, etc.) and the experience of similar patients in the entire country. See the Analytic Methods for a description of adjustment and complete list of adjustment factors.
4 The number of deaths that would be expected during the follow-up time, as described in footnote 3. Unlike the expected survival percent, the expected count of deaths reflects the expected number of deaths only during the time the patient is alive and actually followed; therefore, it accounts for differences in the time that elapses from transplant until death.
5 The 95% confidence interval gives a range of values for the true ratio of deaths at the facility to those expected based on the national experience.  The true ratio will be between this lower and upper bound 95% of the time. 
6 A p-value less than or equal to 0.05 indicates that the difference between the actual and expected patient survival is probably real and is not due to random chance, while a p-value greater than 0.05 indicates that the difference could possibly be due to random chance.
(a) This difference could plausibly be just a chance occurrence.
7 Of days expected to be included in the follow-up period, the percentage of days covered by follow-up reporting at this center for these transplants.  Additional follow-up days included in survival may be covered by SSDMF data.  This measures the possibility that events such as failure have occurred without being reported, and it is not a measure of compliance.
Based on data available as of 10/31/2009.  Release at www.ustransplant.org on 01/12/2010.
The SRTR is administered by the Arbor Research Collaborative for Health with the University of Michigan,
with oversight and funding from the Health Resources and Services Administration.
