A corrigendum on
Expert arguments for trends of psychiatric bed numbers: A systematic review of qualitative data
by Mundt, A. P., Delhey Langerfeldt, S., Rozas Serri, E., Siebenförcher, M., and Priebe, S. (2021). Front. Psychiatry 12:745247. doi: 10.3389/fpsyt.2021.745247
In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 2 as published.
TABLE 2
Table 2. Number of expert arguments per theme and country.
Column headings are labeled as “High- and upper-middle income countries (HIC)“ and ”Lower-Middle and Low-Income countries (LMIC)“. The heading should read ”High-Income Countries (HIC)“ and ”Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMIC),“ respectively.
Zeros were erroneously inserted in several lines that should have been blank,
On page 12
1.1. Cost effectiveness
1.2 Inappropriate use of inpatient care
1.4. Quality of care is maintained or improved with less beds
1.5. Less psychiatric bed needs
On page 13
Expert arguments to increase or maintain psychiatric bed numbers
2.1 Lack of beds for financial pressure
2.3 High demand of psychiatric beds
2.4 Inadequately short length of stay
2.6. Lack of locally available beds
2.7 Lack of beds compromises quality of care
2.12 Lack of affordable and supported housing services
The numbers for those headings are reported in the subordinate points.
Finally, only in the PDF version of the published article, an error occurs in the heading of the first column in Table 2. The statement “Expert arguments to reduce psychiatric bed numbers,” which is correctly inserted on page 12, is erroneously repeated on pages 13 and 14. Instead, the correct column heading on pages 13 and 14 is “Expert arguments to increase or maintain psychiatric bed numbers.”
The corrected Table 2 is shown below.
The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
