Insights on the User Experience and Feasibility of an Electromyography-Driven Exergame Combined With Blood Flow Restriction for Strength Training in Hospitalized Older Adults: Mixed Methods Randomized Controlled Feasibility Study

Insights on the User Experience and Feasibility of an Electromyography-Driven Exergame Combined With Blood Flow Restriction for Strength Training in Hospitalized Older Adults: Mixed Methods Randomized Controlled Feasibility Study

Since the study was a feasibility study, no a priori sample size calculations were performed, and a sample of 15 participants was chosen based on practical considerations and the number of participants needed to reasonably evaluate feasibility goals and gather meaningful data on user experience [27].

Community Health Worker Diabetes Prevention Awareness Training in an Immersive Virtual World Environment: Mixed Methods Pilot Study

Community Health Worker Diabetes Prevention Awareness Training in an Immersive Virtual World Environment: Mixed Methods Pilot Study

This paper describes a pre-post pilot phase examining acceptability, feasibility, and the preliminary impact of the training, followed by an explanatory phase clarifying and expanding upon the findings of the pilot. The primary quantitative variables included primary training-related outcomes (ie, knowledge and confidence).

Feasibility of a 12-Week, Therapist-Independent, Smartphone-Based Biofeedback Treatment for Episodic Migraine in Adults: Single-Center, Open-Label, 1-Armed Trial

Feasibility of a 12-Week, Therapist-Independent, Smartphone-Based Biofeedback Treatment for Episodic Migraine in Adults: Single-Center, Open-Label, 1-Armed Trial

The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, usability, and safety of 12 weeks of daily use of a home-based biofeedback system as a preventative in adults with episodic migraine. The findings of the study are intended to lead to refinements in the feasibility and usability of Cerebri (version 0.1.0; Nordic Brain Tech AS) and guide study design choices for a future randomized controlled trial. The study was a single-center, open-label, one-armed interventional trial conducted at St.

Integrating Nurse Preferences Into AI-Based Scheduling Systems: Qualitative Study

Integrating Nurse Preferences Into AI-Based Scheduling Systems: Qualitative Study

It focuses on feasibility rather than optimization and excels at managing diverse and intricate constraints and preferences [25]. It adeptly explores and refines the solution space to identify feasible schedules that meet all constraints. Participatory staff scheduling can also be significantly enhanced by AI methodologies, especially by reinforcement learning (RL) and natural language processing (NLP).

Collecting Real-Life Psychophysiological Data via Wearables to Better Understand Child Behavior in a Children’s Psychiatric Center: Mixed Methods Study on Feasibility and Implementation

Collecting Real-Life Psychophysiological Data via Wearables to Better Understand Child Behavior in a Children’s Psychiatric Center: Mixed Methods Study on Feasibility and Implementation

Besides the feasibility of collecting psychophysiological data in child psychiatric care with wearables, it is challenging to effectively implement these technologies into real-world clinical practice [12,13]. This gap between inventive technologies and successful implementation processes is commonly referred to as the “valley of death” and creates a waste of research investments [14].

Longitudinal Remote Sleep and Cognitive Research in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia: Prospective Feasibility Cohort Study

Longitudinal Remote Sleep and Cognitive Research in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia: Prospective Feasibility Cohort Study

The few studies that have tested wearable devices and digital health technologies for sleep and dementia research in the home have predominantly collected feasibility data for a single device across only a few nights [31] and required support from a study partner or care home staff [32-34].

Treating Lower Phantom Limb Pain in the Postoperative Acute Care Setting Using Virtual Reality: Protocol for a 4-Phase Development and Feasibility Trial

Treating Lower Phantom Limb Pain in the Postoperative Acute Care Setting Using Virtual Reality: Protocol for a 4-Phase Development and Feasibility Trial

In phase 3 (completed), the preliminary feasibility of the VR prototype was assessed in the acute postoperative setting using a case series design. In phase 4 A (in progress), a larger quantitative feasibility study is being conducted to evaluate the VR program in the acute postoperative period (including the hospital and transition to home) immediately following LLA.

Use of Virtual Reality in the Pediatric Perioperative Setting and for Induction of Anesthesia: Mixed Methods Pilot Feasibility Study

Use of Virtual Reality in the Pediatric Perioperative Setting and for Induction of Anesthesia: Mixed Methods Pilot Feasibility Study

Understanding the VR feasibility for distraction across these different moments would be fundamental to determining if and where VR can be integrated into the overall perioperative patient flow. Integrating VR into the induction of anesthesia may be more technically complex than in other studied settings, such as intravenous (IV) insertions.

Identifying Optimal Wearable Devices for Monitoring Mobility in Hospitalized Older Adults: Feasibility, Acceptability, and Validity Study

Identifying Optimal Wearable Devices for Monitoring Mobility in Hospitalized Older Adults: Feasibility, Acceptability, and Validity Study

Despite the increased use of wearables in clinical settings, the feasibility, validity, and reliability of these devices have not been fully established in older hospitalized patients [15,16]. Collecting data accurately with wearables in hospitalized patients presents significant challenges, as they tend to be more sedentary and walk slower [17].

Using a Robot to Address the Well-Being, Social Isolation, and Loneliness of Care Home Residents via Video Calls: Qualitative Feasibility Study

Hence, there is a need for systematic research on the feasibility of such solutions in terms of factors affecting the uptake and use, and also to inform future research in this field [17]. Despite the rhetoric associated with the benefits of digital solutions in health care, the uptake and use have not progressed at the pace and scale anticipated [18].
