Version of mice::nelsonaalen but with the control = survival::coxph.control(timefix = FALSE) argument added to the survival::coxph call. This is to deal with floating point errors within the simulation procedure, where two or more simulated time points with minimal difference between would normally be considered as a tie.

dat

Data frame with time and status variables

timevar

Column name of time variable
