ANZDATA is located at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Adelaide, South Australia (see photographs).

The Aims of the Registry are

The collation and dissemination of a Report of Renal Failure Management.
Provision of reports of individual hospital activity and outcome of treatment.
A database for collaboration with research studies.
Data to support health care planning.

Funding is provided by

The Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing.
The New Zealand Government.
Kidney Health Australia.

The Registry is a project responsible jointly to the Australia and New Zealand Society of Nephrology and to Kidney Health Australia.

Data is collected by circulation of printed survey forms for each patient at six month intervals to all dialysis and transplant units in Australia and New Zealand.

A list of the participating units is available from the most recent ANZDATA Report Contents file. File is available for download from the Annual Report download area.

There is voluntary participation by all physicians/surgeons involved in dialysis/transplant treatment in both countries.

An Annual Report is published with a wide national and international circulation.
