Abstract
Escalation of UNOS status is common and delisting as too well is uncommon after initial status 2 listing. Despite the decreasing number of transplants provided to status 2 registrants, sub-groups of patients may be at high risk of waiting at status 1A, justifying the continued use of the status 2 designation.
