Upon post-publication review, the authors identified an inaccuracy in the description of the study sample. The article indicates that the study included healthcare institutions from all sectors in Oman, including military hospitals. While this was part of the original study plan, the authors were unable to obtain the necessary administrative approvals to collect data from military hospitals. Therefore, no data were collected from these institutions. Some statements in the article should be revised to reflect this fact, as shown in Table 1.

The authors apologize for the error.

Table 1 Long description

A table with two columns and three rows, comparing original and revised statements in a published article. The columns are labeled ‘Original Statement in the Published Article’ and ‘Revised Statement’. The rows are labeled ‘Methods – Study Setting’ and ‘Limitations (Addition)’. In the ‘Methods – Study Setting’ row, the original statement mentions hospitals from all healthcare sectors, while the revised statement specifies hospitals from ministry of health, public non-ministry of health, and private sectors. In the ‘Limitations (Addition)’ row, the original statement is not stated, while the revised statement explains the exclusion of military hospitals due to lack of access and administrative approvals.
