Learning Outcomes
On completion of this course, the student will be able to:
- Create, interpret and critically assess the ouput from the Kaplan-Meier method (descriptive statistics and survival graphs).
- Create, interpret and critically assess the ouput from Cox regression (survival graphs, hazard graphs, hazard ratios).
- Create, interpret and critically assess the ouput from parametric survival models (survival graphs, hazard graphs, hazard ratios).
- Critically discuss how parametric survival models can be used for extrapolating (and therefore obtain unrestricted life expectancy estimates) and partitioning survival curves
- Evaluate how outputs from survival models can be used as inputs in Markov models, discrete event simulations and cumulative incidence implementations.
