The incorrect citation was cited in Discussion, paragraph two. It should be reference 16 instead of 18. The corrected sentence appears below:
“In accordance with previous studies (16), the goal of sedation target level was a RASS score of 0 to −3 after randomization.”
The incorrect citation was cited in Discussion, paragraph two. It should be reference 18 instead of 16. The corrected sentence appears below:
“Considering the variations in sedation duration before randomization that might influence outcomes, we compared the sedation duration before randomization and found no statistical difference between the groups. Various physiological parameters, including age-related effects, compromised renal function, and liver dysfunction, may affect the pharmacokinetics of benzodiazepine medications (18).”
The reference details for references 18 and 20 should be swapped. The correct references Spina et al. (18) and Sanavia et al. (20) appear below:
