Sambalpur was removed from the validation analysis (although the numbers observed are shown in Table 4) as completion of suspect referral forms was carried out on the validation dates (i.e. for those suspect cases that had attended the validation session) instead of at the time of diagnosis.
Further data collection and validation sessions were planned if needed based on results of the first validation session.
The validation session lasted approximately 90 minutes and was audio recorded and later transcribed.
