The question
Current research has proven that patients who are experiencing kidney failure is a rapidly growing group. In many of the cases, the failure appears to be a result of longer hospitalization in the ICU (for example: people who are battling cancer).
Knowing this, our client asked us to test the concept of their new diagnostic device for measuring these renal issues. This new technique would provide a quicker and more clear indication of whether there are problems in the kidneys. This way, it’d allow treating physicians to respond more quickly to the situation at hand.
We focused on the potential acceptance of, and potential barriers against, the introduction of this technology. Our research was executed within ICU departments and oncology centers (outpatient centers as well as hospitals).
