Declarations
:
: This study was performed in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Ethical Committee at Guangdong Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine, China (YE2019-204-01) in 2019. Prior to the interview, informed consent was obtained after explaining the study’s purpose to participating mothers over the phone. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, it was difficult to meet the caregivers in person and sign the informed consent. Therefore printed informed consent forms were sent to the participants via express delivery and returned to the researcher once they had been read and signed. Confidentiality was ensured by placing the forms in sealed envelopes, which were then handed to the courier by both the researcher and the participants.
