Informed verbal consent was obtained from patients and for those whose age was < 18 years consent as well as assent was obtained from guardians. Obtaining only verbal consent was approved by the ethics committee rather than written consent because the research didn’t involve any therapeutic interventions and also had a minimal risk to the patients during data collection. Verbal consent was obtained from the patients before starting data collection.
