Erratum: A Comparison of Myocardial Function After Primary Cardiac and Primary Asphyxial Cardiac Arrest
To the Editor:
We regret the error in our article (1) in
which Figure 4 was a duplicate of Figure 3. The correct Figure 4 shows the effects of
asphyxial or dysrhythmic cardiac arrest on post resuscitation -dPdt and left
ventricular end diastolic pressure.

Figure 4. Significantly greater -dP/dt40 and lower LVEDP were observed after
resuscitation from asphyxial cardiac arrest (NMB-E) than that from dysrhythmic cardiac
arrest (VF). Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of animals. Open
triangles: VF; open squares: NMB-E. *p < 0.005, 1p <
0.01 versus VF.
