Declarations
:
: Ethical approval was obtained from the institutional review board (IRB) of St. Paul’s Hospital Millennium Medical College. All methods were carried out under the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Informed consent from the subjects and/or legal guardians was not obtained because the study was a fully retrospective review of the chart. Additionally, the confidentiality of the information was maintained by avoiding any personal identifiers, such as the patient’s name, on the questionnaires during the data collection. Finally, the recorded data were kept safe by locking them in the locker, and the key of the lock was accessed only by the principal investigator.
