1 Transplants during the time period indicated in the last row of the table.
2 Because different cohorts are followed for each time period, it is possible for reported 3-year survival to exceed 1-year survival.
3 Based on U.S. patient mortality rates adjusted for recipient and donor characteristics as indicated in the Analytical Methods.
4 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.
5 Of days expected to be included in the follow-up period, the percentage of days covered by follow-up reporting for these tranplants.  A low percent may indicate a non-representative sample from this facility for followup.  This measures the possibility that events such as failure have occurred without being reported, and it is not a measure of compliance.
6 Percent of 3 month follow-up forms filed is used for 1 month survival; percent of 1 year follow-up forms filed is used for 1 year survival; and percent of 3 year follow-up forms filed is used for 3 year survival.
Based on data available as of 11/01/2001.
