Correction to: European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery 10.1007/s00068-019-01106-4
The original version of this article, unfortunately, contained three mistakes:
1. The abbreviation psi was incorrectly explained. The correct explanation is:
“psi Pounds per square inch”.
2. The legend of Fig. 3 contained a part c where only parts a and b should be given. The correct legend of Fig. 3 should read:
Fig. 3 a The patient was admitted to hospital after an accident cleaning concrete, he underwent an urgent decompression and extensive debridement, the wound left open and had three more consecutive and increasingly extensive surgical explorations at incident plus 1 day and incident plus 4 days. b Forearm and hand after almost 1 year elapsed time from an accident and after two plastic surgery reconstructions requiring an abdominal flap.
3. In Fig. 6, in the section of “Antimicrobial prophylaxis”, “Patient presenting for immediate debridement after HPWJ injury < 24 h”, “Alternative for penicillin allergic patients” the word “Meropenem*” needs to be replaced by “Metronidazole”. Please find the corrected Fig. 6 below.
