Method evidence record

Recurrent Event Model

A recurrent event model is a survival analysis extension, formalised through the landmark contributions of Prentice, Williams and Peterson (1981), Andersen and Gill (1982), and Wei, Lin and Weissfeld (1989), that models time-to-event data when the same event — such as a hospital readmission, disease relapse, or equipment failure — can occur multiple times in the same individual. The three principal frameworks are the Andersen-Gill (AG) model, the Prentice-Williams-Peterson (PWP) stratified model, and the Wei-Lin-Weissfeld (WLW) marginal model, each making different assumptions about within-subject dependence.
