At the beginning or each time interval i, the number or patients at risk Si may be calculated as Si-1 + ai-1di-1. The hazard is the rate of death among the patients at risk during the specified time interval. Time after injury is calculated as prehospital time (tp) plus hospital time (th). HR models described elsewhere in this article calculate the hazard for each minute rather than for 15-minute intervals.
