The Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients (SRTR) has released a 5-tier performance ranking system based upon results of deceased-donor and living-donor liver transplantation.
An analysis of Spring 2017 SRTR Program Specific Reports for outcomes of adult living-donor and deceased-donor liver transplantation.
Utilizing the current SRTR performance algorithm, living-donor liver transplant results may disproportionately affect transplant center performance ranking.
Improvements in SRTR performance ranking including transparency in outcomes calculation, a calculating tool for transplant centers, and the potential reporting of living-donor outcomes as a separate report are necessary.
移植受者科学注册系统(SRTR)已发布了一个基于 deceased-donor 和 living-donor 肝移植结果的五级绩效排名系统。
对 2017 年春季 SRTR 项目特定报告中成人 living-donor 和 deceased-donor 肝移植的结果进行分析。
利用当前的 SRTR 绩效算法,living-donor 肝移植结果可能会对移植中心的绩效排名产生不成比例的影响。
有必要改进 SRTR 绩效排名,包括结果计算的透明度、为移植中心提供计算工具以及将 living-donor 结果作为单独报告进行潜在报告。
