The total KT rate p.m.p. between 2010 and 2018 with the corresponding average APC for 40 European countries, combined and by country. Only for countries where the Joinpoint model detected a change in the trend of the KT rate the separate APCs are presented. Arrows indicate statistically significant trends.
