Declarations
:
: The larger national study, from which the material for this study was derived, was performed in line with the principles of the Declaration of Helsinki. Ethical approval was reviewed and deemed unnecessary by the Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics (national legislation of the Health Research Act). Ethical approval was also applied and granted by the Data Protection Officer at St. Olavs hospital in Trondheim, Norway (Reference ID: ESA 17/4211). Consistent with this approval, all participants were informed about what their participation would involve, who would conduct the interview, and that the interview would be anonymised and transcribed word for word, before being analysed and published in reports and articles. The participants were also asked if the interview could be digitally audio-recorded, of which 2 participants declined. These two interviews were recorded by written notes by the second author. Finally, before conducting the interviews, each participant was informed that they could withdraw their consent and end the interview as they wished. All participants signed a written informed consent before the interviews took place.
