Data from Sisli Hamidiye Etfal Training and Research Hospital were reviewed via retrospective chart review in the same period. Frequency and average values were determined using statistical software. In the evaluation of related factors, chi-square and student t tests were applied; p ? 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
