Data Insight

St. Louis Children's Hospital is a transplant program in Missouri (SRTR center code MOCH). According to SRTR Program-Specific Reports from November 2025, the center operates 3 distinct organ programs — Kidney, Liver, Lung. Each program is independently evaluated by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients using risk-adjusted survival estimates, so performance on one organ does not imply performance on another.

Across all programs, the center reported approximately 100 transplant procedures during the most recent SRTR reporting cohort. An estimated 10 candidates sit on this center's combined waiting lists, though allocation is driven by OPTN policy (blood type, medical urgency, geography, organ-specific criteria) rather than list position alone.

This center operates 3 SRTR-reporting programs; survival estimates are risk-adjusted for recipient characteristics and update approximately twice per year. Use the table below to compare each organ program's survival, volume, and waitlist against national averages. This information is factual and does not constitute medical advice.

What factors should I consider when choosing St. Louis Children's Hospital for transplant?

When evaluating St. Louis Children's Hospital or any transplant center, consider multiple factors beyond survival statistics: the center's experience with your specific organ type, geographic proximity (which affects organ allocation timing), your insurance coverage, the multidisciplinary team's expertise, post-transplant follow-up capabilities, and the center's patient volume. SRTR data provides one lens, but the OPTN recommends discussing all options with your referring physician and potential transplant teams.

How often is the transplant data for St. Louis Children's Hospital updated?

The data shown here comes from SRTR Program-Specific Reports released in November 2025 as part of the Collaborative Silo-Reservoir Study (CSRS). SRTR publishes updated program-specific reports approximately twice per year (typically May and November). Each release includes the most recent cohort data, which may lag by 6-18 months due to follow-up requirements for survival outcomes.
