Erratum

Following publication of the original article [1], it was brought to our attention that there were a few errors in Table 2:

Table 2.

Outcome comparisons between REBOA and ACC

REBOA (n = 636) ACC (n = 267) P value
Disposition at discharge <0.001*
 Died (in-hospital mortality) 405/607 (67%) 210/233 (90%)
 Transferred 118/607 (19%) 11/233 (4.7%)
 Home 83/607 (14%) 12/233 (5.2%)
 Other 1/607 (0.1%) 0/233 (0.0%)
Disposition at ED <0.001*
 Died (ED mortality) 137/625 (22%) 130/264 (49%)
 ICU admission 472/625 (76%) 129/264 (49%)
 Ward admission 137/625 (22%) 4/264 (1.5%)
 Other 5/625 (1.8%) 1/264 (0.4%)

The variables are shown as n (%)

ACC aortic cross clamping, ED emergency department, ICU intensive care unit, REBOA resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta

*Chi-square test

CU admission should read: ICU admission

11/233 (1.8%) should read: 11/233 (4.7%)

12/233 (2.0%) should read: 12/233 (5.2%)

The corrected table is presented in this erratum [Table 2].

Furthermore, the sentence “…only 14% (83/607) of REBOA patients and 2.0% (12/233) of ACC patients could leave the hospital and go home.” in the Discussion section should as a consequence read: “…only 14% (83/607) of REBOA patients and 5.2% (12/233) of ACC patients could leave the hospital and go home.”

This has now been corrected in this erratum.
