KTOP allows the prediction of certain outcomes after kidney transplantations from brain-dead deceased donors. It estimates the risk of death during a certain timeframe after the operation as well as the cumulative incidence of organ failures and deaths with a functioning graft. All calculations are based on data from Eurotransplant, the largest international European organ allocation organization.
The basic calculator requires only patient-specific information, which is already available before a potential donor kidney has been identified. Its predictions are for the fixed timeframes of five and ten years.
The expert calculator requires transplant-specific values to achieve a higher prediction accuracy. It allows the entry of multiple values per risk factor as well as multiple timeframes and considers all possible entry combinations for prediction. Multiple numbers can be entered by separating them with a comma. After calculation, individual rows can be selected in the resulting dataframe to be visualized below.
