An Erratum on
Evaluation of Three Medetomidine-Based Anesthetic Protocols in Free-Ranging Wild Boars (Sus scrofa)

by Morelli, J., Rossi, S., Fuchs, B., Richard, E., Barros, D. S. B., Küker, S., et al. (2021). Front. Vet. Sci. 8:655345. doi: 10.3389/fvets.2021.655345

Due to a production error, there was a mistake in the captions of Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3 as published. The corrected figure captions appear below.

Figure 1. Bland-Altman analysis plots the difference between concurrent SaO2 and SpO2 values (Y-axis) against the mean between concurrent SaO2 and SpO2 values (X-axis). Mean difference (bias), upper LoA (bias + 1.96 SD), and lower LoA (bias – 1.96 SD) between paired values are represented with straight lines. Upper CAL (5%) and lower CAL (−5%) are represented with dashed lines. LoA, Limit of Agreement; CAL, Clinically Acceptable Limit; SaO2, arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation; SpO2, peripheral oxyhemoglobin saturation.

Figure 2. The graph shows the poor concordance between the pulse-oximeter (Y-axis) and the iSTAT (X-axis) results. The blue line represents the equality line, that is for the absolute concordance. SaO2, arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation; SpO2, peripheral oxyhemoglobin saturation.

Figure 3. The graph shows the poor correlation between the pulse-oximeter and the iSTAT (X-axis) results. The difference between SaO2, and SpO2 is reported on the Y-axis. A tendency of the pulse-oximeter to underestimate actual SaO2, especially at high readings, is shown. SaO2, arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation; SpO2, peripheral oxyhemoglobin saturation.

The publisher apologizes for these mistakes. The original article has been updated.
