Been looking into the US transplant system, trying to guess at how big an impact recent innovations might have (pig kidneys & hearts, titanium heart, etc.) and what future areas might have the most impact

Unfortunately the HRSA data for transplant list removal reason seems to only be available center by center. Might have some manual tabulation to do

Also wonder about the blind spots of that data. How many people’s lives would be saved by a transplant, but don’t ever get on the registry? How many could have their quality of life improved by one?
