Studies of Pediatric Liver Transplantation (SPLIT)

All children waiting for transplantation or recovering after transplantation are asked to participate in Studies of Pediatric Liver Transplantation (SPLIT), a multi-center prospective study to collect scientific data on pediatric liver transplantation. Although there is no research intervention carried out on participants, your consent allows important information about your child’s liver disease, transplant operation and results to be collected in a national database that is the first to prospectively collect information about the practices and outcomes of pediatric liver transplantation in the United States and Canada. No costs are associated with this study.
