When the above article was published online and in print, the section ‘Very high-frequency oscillations of patients in coma’ on page 511 contained errors. The corrected portion of that section is listed below:
The frequency of the appearance of peaks in the VHF range, considered from 0.4 to 1.0 Hz, was reported by other authors in 9 recordings of 6 patients after some months of cardiac transplantation (CT), and not observed in 8 recordings from other 4 CT patients [125], and in 9 CT patients from 13 in other report [126]. It represents a higher frequency than that observed in our patients in coma (51% vs. 21.2%).
In addition, References (125) and (126) were listed incorrectly. The correct versions of those references are listed below:
125. Toledo E, Pinhas I, Aravot D, Akselrod S. Very high frequency oscillations in the heart rate and blood pressure of heart transplant patients. Med Biol Eng Comput. 2003;41(4):432-8.
