In the Original Investigation titled “Cardiovascular Implications of Fatal Outcomes of Patients With Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19),”1 published online March 27, 2020, errors appeared in the Abstract and Results section. The number of patients with elevated troponin T levels using mechnical ventilation is 31, rather than 41. In addition, the mortality rate of patients without use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers is 21.4% (36 of 168) (P = .13). The article has been corrected online.
