Applying survival analysis to operations management: analyzing the differences in donor classes in the blood donation process
Article Abstract:
The statistical process of survival analysis is suggested as a way of studying events.

The benefits from using survival analysis are demonstrated by using it to analyze a blood donation procedure.
