Alternatives to the Cox model in multi-state models

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The introduction of time-dependent covariates in the survival process can make the patients survival change from one time point to the next as the values of the covariate change. A popular choice for the analysis of this data is the timedependent Cox regression model. In the present work we present multi-state models as an alternative for the analysis of such data.
