Ethics approval and consent to participate

: This study used data that is collected at health facility level for routine patient monitoring and CMAM program evaluations. The study data were collected in close collaboration with the Nigeria National Bureau of Statistics. The CMAM program in Nigeria is operated as a joint venture between UNICEF and Federal Ministry of Health (FMoH). Data were used without obtaining consent from individual study participants since it was a retrospective analysis of previously collected routine program data. Confidentiality of information was ensured by avoiding the use of personal identifiers (e.g. names and addresses) other than the use of episode-specific clinic identifiers. Data entry and data analysis staff had no access to name and address data. This study was ethically approved and waiver was obtained from Nigeria’s National Bureau of Statistics Review Committee, Ref. No. NBS/UNICEF/RSHSD/10/IV/72, dated February 12, 2014.
