Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The Norwegian Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics deemed the system revision to be a quality improvement initiative not in need of formal approval (REK 2013/397b). The Privacy Ombudsman at the individual health authorities in Norway gave permission for data collection (ID 2013/17 and 2013/9865). Due to the nature of the study and national regulations there were no need for written consent []. In Finland the study was observational in nature and the data analyzed were fully anonymized; therefore the Ethics Committee approval was not needed due to national regulations []. Each hospital district gave individual permission to data collection at each base (ID 85/2015, R16502, J4/16).
