transplantr - Audit and Research Functions for Transplantation
A set of vectorised functions to calculate medical
equations used in transplantation, focused mainly on
transplantation of abdominal organs. These functions include
donor and recipient risk indices as used by NHS Blood &
Transplant, OPTN/UNOS and Eurotransplant, tools for quantifying
HLA mismatches, functions for calculating estimated glomerular
filtration rate (eGFR), a function to calculate the APRI (AST
to platelet ratio) score used in initial screening of
suitability to receive a transplant from a hepatitis C
seropositive donor and some biochemical unit converter
functions. All functions are designed to work with either US or
international units. References for the equations are provided
in the vignettes and function documentation.
