Exploring Psychosocial Burdens of Diabetes in Pregnancy and the Feasibility of Technology-Based Support: Qualitative Study

Exploring Psychosocial Burdens of Diabetes in Pregnancy and the Feasibility of Technology-Based Support: Qualitative Study

This qualitative study evaluated data collected during a feasibility randomized controlled trial conducted among low-income, English-speaking pregnant people aged 18 years or older, who had a diagnosis of GDM or T2 DM. Individuals with type 1 DM were not eligible for inclusion, given their greater use of continuous glucose monitors and insulin pumps.

Evaluation of a Curriculum-Based Nutrition Education Intervention Protocol in Elementary Schools: Nonrandomized Feasibility Study

Evaluation of a Curriculum-Based Nutrition Education Intervention Protocol in Elementary Schools: Nonrandomized Feasibility Study

Before embarking on a larger randomized trial to evaluate the impact of Foodbot Factory in classrooms, a setting that comes with unique implementation challenges, a feasibility assessment of an intended research protocol is warranted. Therefore, the objective of this research was to determine the feasibility of a research protocol to evaluate the Foodbot Factory intervention and a control intervention with children in the classroom setting.

Resource-Oriented Case Management to Implement Recommendations for Patients With Chronic Pain and Frequent Use of Analgesics in General Practices (Project RELIEF): Protocol for a Single-Arm Exploratory Feasibility Study

Resource-Oriented Case Management to Implement Recommendations for Patients With Chronic Pain and Frequent Use of Analgesics in General Practices (Project RELIEF): Protocol for a Single-Arm Exploratory Feasibility Study

Conducting a pilot study provides a good opportunity to assess feasibility of a full-scale study and can be considered an essential prerequisite to enhancing likelihood of success of the main study. Pilot studies should be well designed with clear feasibility objectives, and explicit criteria for determining feasibility [19]. Figure 1 details the design for the RELIEF pilot study. The design of the pilot study in RELIEF.

Virtual Reality Respiratory Biofeedback in an Outpatient Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Program: Mixed Methods Pilot Study

Virtual Reality Respiratory Biofeedback in an Outpatient Pediatric Pain Rehabilitation Program: Mixed Methods Pilot Study

Given that the primary goal of this pilot study was to assess the continuous outcomes of the feasibility and acceptability of the VR intervention, we aimed to recruit a sample size of 15 participants, which is considered adequate for these objectives [29,30].

Acoustic Features for Identifying Suicide Risk in Crisis Hotline Callers: Machine Learning Approach

Acoustic Features for Identifying Suicide Risk in Crisis Hotline Callers: Machine Learning Approach

The study by Iyer et al [33] is one of the few studies that have tested the feasibility of acoustic features for suicide risk identification in hotline callers. Their findings suggested that acoustic features have the potential to be considered as biomarkers of suicide risk in callers [33]. However, because they used the uncommon method of independent analysis of speech frames and did not validate the model on an independent test set, the results of their study require further validation.

Mobile App–Delivered Motivational Interviewing for Women on Eating Disorder Treatment Waitlists (MI-Coach: ED): Protocol for an App Development and Pilot Evaluation

Mobile App–Delivered Motivational Interviewing for Women on Eating Disorder Treatment Waitlists (MI-Coach: ED): Protocol for an App Development and Pilot Evaluation

Qualitative and descriptive data were collected to determine the acceptability and feasibility of the MI-Coach: ED app. Given the focus of this study on the acceptability and feasibility, rather than the efficacy, of the MI-Coach: ED app, formal analytic methods were not used to estimate the prehoc sample size.

The Use of Mobile Apps in Adolescent Psychotherapy: Assessment of Psychotherapists’ Perspectives

The Use of Mobile Apps in Adolescent Psychotherapy: Assessment of Psychotherapists’ Perspectives

To assess psychotherapists’ perspectives in a more practical way, we conducted a needs evaluation within the initial feasibility pilot testing of a transdiagnostic, therapy-accompanying app for adolescents in 3 different treatment settings: inpatient treatment, psychiatric outpatient clinics, and outpatient treatment with private practice psychotherapists.

Extended Reality (XR) in Pediatric Acute and Chronic Pain: Systematic Review and Evidence Gap Map

Extended Reality (XR) in Pediatric Acute and Chronic Pain: Systematic Review and Evidence Gap Map

Across all included studies, feasibility was evaluated 43% (39/90) of the time. Within chronic pain studies, 50% (3/6) of the studies assessed the feasibility of VR. Although limited in scope, of the 3 studies that examined feasibility, results did indicate VR to be a positive experience that supported their management of pain. Within the acute pain studies (n=84), feasibility was assessed in 35 studies.

Feasibility, Acceptability, and Potential Effects of a Digital Oral Anticancer Agent Intervention: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Feasibility, Acceptability, and Potential Effects of a Digital Oral Anticancer Agent Intervention: Protocol for a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

In support of this, a standardized patient education and follow-up intervention for oral chemotherapy by Tokdemir and Kav [33] successfully increased medication adherence SE after the intervention (66.39 vs 71.04; P The aim of this pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) was to document the feasibility and acceptability of the experimental intervention. Pilot studies are critically important as a first step to address practical, logistical, and methodological issues that may arise.
