Caveats and Limitations

The indicator is based on voluntary data submitted to CORR from OPOs across Canada.

Data from Quebec was not included because of significant under-reporting between 2011 and 2019, which may lead to biased results.

Trending Issues

An overview of under-reporting of organ transplant cases can be found in Data Quality Documentation for Users: Canadian Organ Replacement Register, 2010 to 2019 Data (PDF).
