The development of statistical methods addressed to this issue has been proposed more than two decades ago.

More complicated multi-variable technique was introduced by Cox in 1972 which is later known as a Cox regression. In Indonesia, however the use of a survival analysis is still a very limited and sometimes are not properly done.
