Bayesian methods for pilot studies.

CONCLUSION: Applying Bayesian methods to pilot studies' results provides direct inference about the feasibility parameters and quantifies the uncertainty regarding the feasibility of an associated randomized controlled trial in an intuitive and meaningful way. Furthermore, Bayesian methods can identify recruitment strategies that yield the desired power for an associated randomized controlled trial. PMID: 32297539 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
