Description
The data presented by McGilchrist and Aisbett (1991) consist of times to the first and second recurrences
of infection in 38 kidney patients using a portable dialysis machine. Infections can occur at
the location of insertion of the catheter. The catheter is later removed if infection occurs and can be
removed for other reasons, in which case the observation is censored.
Usage

data("kidney")
Format
A data frame with 76 observations on the following 10 variables.
idPatient number for 38 patients
timeTime to infection since insertion of the catheter
statusCensoring indicator(1=uncensored, 0=censored)
ageAge of each patient, in years
sexSex of each patient(1=male, 2=female)
diseaseDisease type(GN, AN, PKD, Other)
frailFrailty estimate from original paper
GNIndicator for disease type GN
ANIndicator for disease type AN
PKDIndicator for disease type PKD
