* Person years are calculated as days (converted to fractional years).  The number of days from July 1 or from the date of first wait listing until removal from the wait list or the end of one year.
**The expected transplant rate is adjusted for age, blood type, and previous transplantation.
***The expected mortality rate is adjusted for age, race, ethnicity, gender, and blood type.
