Transplant Statistics: Annual Report

Technical Notes and Analytic Methods
Transplant Center Activity

Table 8 of each of the organ-specific sections presents information on the number of transplants performed, by state and transplant center, by year as follows:

• Table 6.8   Kidney Transplants
• Table 7.8   Pancreas Transplants
• Table 8.8   Kidney-Pancreas Transplants
• Table 9.8   Liver Transplants
• Table 10.8  Intestine Transplants
• Table 11.8  Heart Transplants
• Table 12.8  Lung Transplants
• Table 13.8  Heart-Lung Transplants

Transplant center activity is defined as the number of cadaveric and living solid organ transplants performed by each transplant center, by type of organ, and by year. Total transplants in each state also are computed.

Kidney-pancreas and heart-lung transplants are reported in their own tables. Other multi-organ transplants are reported in each organ-specific table. For example, a kidney-liver transplant would be reported in both the kidney transplant activity table and the liver transplant activity table.

The data shown in these tables are obtained from the TRR forms for each organ type.
