    Kidney Transplant

    California Pacific performed its first kidney transplant in 1969 and has performed more than 4,500 since. CPMC has been recognized by the U.S. Department of Health's Health Resources and Service Administration for our high patient and graft survival rates. The graphs below show two markers of transplant quality: patient survival and graft survival.

    Graft Survival

    Kidney Transplant: Graft Survival
    Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients Release January 2012

    Results1 month:
    Patients receiving transplant between 07/01/2008 and 12/31/2010    		1 year:
    Patients receiving transplant between 07/01/2008 and 12/31/2010    		3 years:

    The "expected" value is calculated based on transplant patient and donor characteristics which take factors such as age and patient diagnosis into consideration. The expected patient survival rate is the patient survival rate we would expect to see based on our patient and donor population's characteristics. A "statistically higher" difference between observed and expected value shows an extremely high quality of patient care.
