Declarations
:
: In this study, no personal or identifiable data were collected, and the analysis was limited to aggregated, non-traceable survey responses. Upon inquiry, our local Ethics Committee (Ethics Committee of the Medical Faculty of the Christian-Albrechts-University Kiel, Germany) therefore stated that it is not necessary to obtain ethics approval for the study under German law and common academic practice, arguing that this was the retrospective analysis of anonymized data that was obtained as part of a quality control initiative. Since this was the retrospective analysis of anonymized data from a quality control survey, no consent to participate was obtained. Our study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki in the current (2024) version.
