Abstract
We regret that there was a statistical error in the September issue of the Southern Medical Journal. In the article titled "Adult Health Screening and Referral in the Emergency Department," by Drs. Zun and Downey, the number of referrals for Pap smears was listed as 2.6% (39 of 157 patients). The correct numbers are as follows: Patients eligible for Pap smear 113: (50.9%) Number of patients who had a Pap smear within the last year: 74 (33.3%) Number of patients who needed a Pap smear: 39 (17.6%) Followup with Pap smear? Yes: 4 (1.8%) No: 15 (6.8%) Unknown: 19 (8.6%) Not needed: 183 (82.8%) Pap follow up confirmed: Yes: 18 (8.1%) No: 4 (1.8%) Unable to find patient: 13 (5.9%)This content is limited to qualifying members.
