The Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry (ANZDATA) is a clinical quality registry that collects and produces a wide range of statistics relating to the outcomes of treatment of those with end stage kidney failure.

ANZDATA has been in operation since 1977 and all dialysis and transplant services, in Australia and New Zealand, contribute data to The Registry. This encompasses all patients receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT), either dialysis or kidney transplantation, for the treatment of end stage kidney disease (ESKD). Survey data is collected nearest to the 31-December every year for the previous twelve months. Real time data is collected on all new incident patients commencing RRT, changes of RRT modality, changes in treating centre, death and other major events such as new cancer diagnoses.    

Data entered into the ANZDATA Registry are used to calculate various statistical indicators such as incidence and prevalence of end stage kidney disease treatment; patient outcome measures such as patient, technique and graft survival; and rates of adverse events such as peritonitis and mortality. Data elements and statistical analyses have evolved over time and where indicated the status of a data element describes whether it is in current use or inactive.

ANZDATA’s fundamental purpose is to report on the incidence, prevalence and outcomes of dialysis and transplant treatment for patients with end stage kidney disease across Australia and New Zealand.
