Significance of Feasibility study
A feasibility study is a preliminary investigation determining the practicality and potential success of a project or intervention. It can assess the use of self-administered smartphone-based audiometry for detecting hearing loss in children with human immunodeficiency virus, and the adoption of the WHO safe childbirth checklist. These studies can also evaluate the implementation of new educational programs, or the impact of a guided self-study program. Often, these studies involve small sample sizes.
