(-) = None in category.

(*) = For cohorts with fewer than 10 patients, rates are imprecise and are not reported.

Multi-organ transplants are excluded.

Includes patients transplanted during the year and having reported data one-year after transplant.

for Expanded Criteria Donors for Kidney are classified as ECD, regardless of whether the kidneys were

allocated under the ECD system. Non-ECDs include all other donors, including SCDs and DCDs.
