ST participated in the design of the study, organised the implementation and supervision, supervised data collection and entry, and compiled the initial draft paper.
However understaffing is still a problem at provincial and district level; there is still a relative shortage of supervisors to enable regular and constructive supervision and data collection, especially with regard to supervising the large number of hospitals.
Officials have taken a paring knife to administrative overhead, which means supervision and data collection suffer.
DE and VG undertook weekly supervision and data collection.
SMNH contributed to project supervision and data collection.
The supervision and data collection rotated between one of two course instructors and a teaching assistant.
Other questions were on providers' workload, supervision, and data collection and management.
EK participated in conception and design of the study, training practitioners, follow-up supervision, and data collection and drafting the manuscript.
JT assisted with the study design, project management including database supervision and data collection, assisted in the interpretation of data, and was involved in manuscript preparation, revision and submission.
MHNGA was responsible for the study design, supervision and data collection as well as assisted with the analysis, the interpretation of the data and the writing of the paper.
