Detaljeret beskrivelse
3.4 Sample Size The sample size was calculated using StatCalc version 1.4.3 (Epi Info™️; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, GA, USA) employing the population survey method for estimating a single proportion. The calculation was based on a reported awareness of digital prosthetic solutions among dentists of 66.4%, as reported by Qamar et al. (2026), with a 95% confidence level and a margin of error of 5%. The minimum required sample size was calculated to be 343 dentists.
3.5 Survey Instrument A structured, validated questionnaire capturing demographic data and KAP indicators related to digital technologies in pediatric prosthetic rehabilitation among pediatric dentists in Egypt.
The survey form ( Appendix A) includes 18 closed-ended questions were designed in English language to evaluate three main aspects: awareness, behavior, and perceptions related to pediatric dentists towards the use of digital workflow in pediatric prosthetic rehabilitation. The questionnaire starts with demographic information, including age, gender, designation and details regarding years of experience. (Qamar et al., 2026) 3.6 Data Collection Duration: 6-8 weeks Platform: Google Forms Distribution: Digital and conference-based
4.2 Informed Consent
