Abstract

Elke Rudloff2017; 19: 1167-1174 Readers should note that the version of the article that appeared in print in November 2017 and online until June 2018 has been amended. The version now appearing online is the correct one. For information, the following amendment has been made to the original published version. In the fifth paragraph of 'Correction of electrolyte imbalances' box on page 1172, the unit for potassium supplementation should be mEq/kg/h and not mEq/h, as stated. The sentence has therefore been amended to 'Potassium supplementation is calculated according to the serum level and, in general, the rate should not exceed 0.5 mEq/kg/h.'
