In resource-limited settings such as Ethiopia, there is a need for affordable and reliable diagnostic devices to improve healthcare outcomes. A comparative study using qualitative data from interviews and existing literature on device development processes in Ethiopia. There was a significant variance in the acceptance rates between the two devices, with Device X being adopted by 75% of healthcare facilities compared to Device Y at 40%. This disparity suggests that further customization is needed for broader adoption. The study highlights the importance of local context and user engagement in device development processes. Future research should focus on developing more localized diagnostic devices tailored to specific health needs within Ethiopia. diagnostic device, resource-limited settings, biomedical engineering, innovation, healthcare access The maintenance outcome was modelled as Y₈ₓ=₀+₁X₈ₓ+uᵢ+₈ₓ, with robustness checked using heteroskedasticity-consistent errors.
