r - survival package, right censored data -
i account right censored data in analysis of dataset. using survival
package - given cancer treatment tactics , when patient last checked in clients clinic.
is there suggested method or manipulation standard survival
package account right-censored data?
our rows unique individual patients...
here our columns filled out:
- list item
- our treatment type (constant)
- days since original diagnosis
- 'censored' number of patients last heard on day. hence, uncertain if still alive or dead seen stopped attending clinic. should removed probability estimate @ points in future.
- # of patients died on day (from original diagnosis)
so recommend manipulation of standard survival package? or using package? have seen survsnp
, survpresmooth
, survbivar
may perhaps help. want avoid recalculations of individual columns/fields , creating new objects of r algorithm seeing small part of large dataset.
