APBMT Activity Survey
In 2006, APBMT established the secretariat office and the data center at Nagoya University and they decided to collect the annual transplant data from Asia.
In 2007, we performed the first APBMT Activity Survey to overview recent situations and trends of HSCT in Asian countries. For the prospective survey, we prepared two forms. The first one is to collect the annual data in one page. It is similar to the one of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT). The number of transplants by each indication combined with donor type and stem cell source should be filled into the form. The other one is to collect data for all transplants in the past dozen years or so. There are two pages. In the first page, each registry or center had to fill in the number of transplants in each year for each disease indication. In the second page, the number of transplants in each year by donor type and cell source was filled in.
We will renew these forms in 2010.
