Introduction to TRANSPLANT APP
Introduction Audience: patients and their families Aim: to provide clear and interpretable graphics showing what would happen to 100 people like me to fully inform patients on the risks involved initially liver patients only but with intention to roll out to other organs
Cohort of data Provided by ODT stats Patient cohort: Elective patients registered for a liver only transplant in the UK Period: 1 April 2007 to 31 March 2011 to enable 5 year outcomes to be presented
Disease and UKELD based patient outcomes
Options of diseases to select
Example A Hepatitis C Patient with a UKELD score of 55 What will happen to 100 people like me post-registration
Results differ by disease group and UKELD score (<55, 55+) Example A Hepatitis C Patient with a UKELD score of 55 What will happen to 100 people like me post-registration
Results differ by disease group and UKELD score (<55, 55+) Example A Hepatitis C Patient with a UKELD score of 55 What will happen to 100 people like me post-registration
Results differ by disease group and UKELD score (<55, 55+) Example A Hepatitis C Patient with a UKELD score of 55 What will happen to 100 people like me post-transplant
