The report cards compare organ transplant volumes at Duke
with those at other North Carolina medical institutions. They
also compare post-procedural patient and organ graft survival
at Duke with the national average.

Outcomes
Outcomes are for the duration of post-procedural survival of
patients. Each pair of percentiles compares Duke's outcomes
with the national average of all transplant centers as
tabulated by the United Network for Organ Sharing (shown in
parentheses). Outcomes are computed using the Kaplan-Meier
Method; a statistical technique that can produce expected
transplant outcome statistics for a given year when data is
incomplete.

Outcomes
Below are the figures for post-procedural survival of
patients and survival of the transplanted grafts. Death with a
functioning graft is considered a graft failure as of the date
of death. Each pair of numbers compares Duke patients with the
national average of all transplant centers as tabulated by the
United Network for Organ Sharing (shown in parentheses), using
the Kaplan-Meier method. Center specific and national graft and
patient survival data, adjusted for differences in patient
characteristics at the time of transplant are also available at
www.ustransplant.org.
