Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The Research Ethics Committee of the UMC Utrecht <i>(Medische Ethische Toetsingscommissie UMC Utrecht</i>) assessed the qualitative research proposal and issued a waiver for the project (WAG/om/15/006748). Verbal informed consent was obtained in the case of healthcare professionals, Research Ethics Committee members and regulators. For all participants, verbal informed consent was documented in the recorded interviews. In the case of pregnant women, both verbal and written informed consent was obtained. The ethics committee formally approved the written consent form and procedure, which entailed a detailed description of the interview process after which both the participant and the researcher signed the informed consent form.
