Demand for Continuous and Long-Term Care in Transplant Recipients: Data From the Organ Transplantation Registry-Poltransplant Activity.

This study aimed to determine the number of recipients with active transplants under the care of transplant centers in 2022 and the current volume and needs for continuous and long-term care in this group of transplant recipients. Data came from the organ transplant registry, one of the registries maintained by the Polish Transplant Coordinating Center Poltransplant. We included recipients of individual organs who, on January 1, 2022, were living with an active transplant performed in previous years and recipients who received a transplant in 2022. The number of recipients under the care of transplant centers in 2022 was 20,994 (55% of all transplants performed in Poland since the beginning of activity in 1966).
