Doherty P, Harrison AS, Hossain R. Determinants of walking fitness in patients with heart failure attending cardiac rehabilitation. Open Heart 2019;6:e000866. doi: 10.1136/openhrt-2018-000866

The authors want to alert readers to the following errors were identified in the published version.

At page 6 Table 4, the values under first data column 'mean distance' is incorrect and needs to be removed (ie, to remove the values 268, 194, 237 and 181 from the table). And shift the four rows to the left which will leave the column 'Count’ empty and these should be filled with the following values: 51, 59, 95 and 52.

The Table 4 should read as below:

Table 4.
