IPD-planbeskrivelse
Here's a short, submission-ready description you can paste into the IPD Sharing Statement field:
Individual participant data will not be shared. This is a small Phase 1 feasibility study (N=20) conducted within a narrowly defined population (NHS doctors on night-shift rotations in the UK), where the limited sample size and specificity of the population create a meaningful risk of participant re-identification, even after de-identification. Data collected are intended solely to assess feasibility and generate preliminary effect-size estimates to inform the design of a future randomized controlled trial, consistent with the scope of participant consent obtained for this study. Data will be handled in accordance with UK GDPR, including data minimization and pseudonymization safeguards.
