Abstract

Feasibility studies are often the first attempt researchers use to test whether a new process or part of a process is practical for use in a clinical setting or a device will provide the desired information. When conducting a device feasibility study there are several unique considerations that must be addressed. This manuscript describes the processes and considerations.

Keywords: device; feasibility; research.
