Declarations
:
: Ethical approval was obtained from the Health Research Review Committee of Mekelle University, College of Health Sciences. As per the WHO near-miss approach, confidential information about the identity of individual participants (i.e. individual participant identification number, name, facility registry code, hospital arrival date, etc.) was kept undisclosed by the data collector in a separate logbook, which was used only to complete forms in case of doubts or missing data. All results were de-identified and none of the information collected in the database could be traced back to any individual patient. Given the above precautions and that individual participants were not approached directly for data collection, the committee waived the need for written informed consent for this research. The ethical approval number for this research is MU-IRB 2426/2022.
