I have looked through various threads @ this forum and found some information as to what I need.
I need to figure out the number of samples during design verification (prototype testing) for medical devices.
We manufacture capital equipment (read pretty expensive prototypes) and I am trying to figure out justification for using 3, 5 or 7 samples (as I have read in other threads) as having sufficient confidence level and reliability to proceed w/ manufacturing.
I did see some posts by Bev D about the same. I could not find any statistically sound argument to justify the small sample size.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
