Differences between protocol and review

The following text was added:

Secondary outcomes: health care utilisation.

Searching other resources: the reference sections of all selected papers were screened for additional studies.

Because of the types of trials identified, we conducted no quantitative analysis and completed the review using a qualitative summary. Should there be trials in the future that enable a quantitative analysis, these will be performed as per the original protocol.
