BACKGROUND Reducing inequalities in access to the National Health Service is a key government priority. This study investigates the extent to which equitable access is achieved in one routinely administered hospital waiting list system. METHODS Using hospital episode statistics for one hospital in the North West of England, a retrospective study of waiting times to surgery was undertaken for ...
BACKGROUND: The pre-transplant period is complex and includes lots of procedures. The severity of liver disease predisposes to a high number of hospitalizations and high costs procedures. Economic evaluation studies are important tools to handle costs on the waiting list for liver transplantation. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the present study was to evaluate the total cost of the patient on ...
BACKGROUND The allocation of donor lungs for transplantation in Germany was changed on 10 December 2011 to a system based on the Lung Allocation Score (LAS). The aim of the present study is to determine whether this change has prolonged the survival of patients on the transplant waiting list and of those who have undergone lung transplantation (LTx). METHODS We retrospectively compared data f...
It was hypothesized that peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is less frequent after kidney transplantation than among comparable patients who are on the deceased-donor waiting list. The cumulative incidences and risk factors for PAD were compared among 43,427 adult transplant recipients and 53,309 adults who were placed on the renal transplant waiting list between 1995 and 2003. All patients had ...
INTRODUCTION Waiting times for kidney transplant are long in Singapore. Healthrelated quality of life (HRQoL) of patients might be affected as a result of the stress of the long wait and the uncertainty of being called to undergo a surgical operation. This study aimed to measure the HRQoL of patients on the kidney transplant waiting list and to identify factors which could impact on the HRQoL s...
Because of increasing waiting-list mortality, the MELD (Model for End-Stage Liver Disease) allocation system was implemented within most countries of the Eurotransplant area on December 16, 2006. Five years have now passed, and we review in this paper the effects of the MELD-based allocation upon the waiting list for liver transplantation, on peri-operative management and on postoperative outco...
Using OPTN/SRTR data, this article reviews the state of thoracic organ transplantation in 2003 and the previous decade. Time spent on the heart waiting list has increased significantly over the last decade. The percentage of patients awaiting heart transplantation for >2 years increased from 23% in 1994 to 49% by 2003. However, there has been a general decline in heart waiting list death rates ...
Addition of long-distance heart procurement promotes changes in heart transplant waiting list status
OBJECTIVE Evaluate the addition of long-distance heart procurement on a heart transplant program and the status of heart transplant recipients waiting list. METHODS Between September 2006 and October 2012, 72 patients were listed as heart transplant recipients. Heart transplant was performed in 41 (57%), death on the waiting list occurred in 26 (36%) and heart recovery occurred in 5 (7%). Ini...
BACKGROUND A report from a high-volume single center indicated a survival benefit of receiving a kidney transplant from an HLA-incompatible live donor as compared with remaining on the waiting list, whether or not a kidney from a deceased donor was received. The generalizability of that finding is unclear. METHODS In a 22-center study, we estimated the survival benefit for 1025 recipients of ...
