✓ Unanimous Initial: feasibility RCT Requery: feasibility RCT — This is explicitly described as an 'exploratory research' with n=20 participants designed to test applicability and clarify selection criteria for e-health services, making it a feasibility study. Thinking: N/A — Non-randomized single group interventional study, not an RCT.
