  Co-design is an effective method for designing software, but implementing it
within the clinical setting comes with a set of unique challenges. This makes
recruitment and engagement of participants difficult, which has been
demonstrated in our study. Our work focused on designing and evaluating a data
annotation tool, however, different types of interventions had to be carried
out due to poor engagement with the study. We evaluated the effectiveness and
feasibility of each of these strategies, their applicability to different
stages of co-design research and discussed the barriers to participation
present among participants from a clinical background.
