  • Text Correction 
This corrects the article “Effect of Early Pelvic Binder Use in the Emergency Management of Suspected Pelvic Trauma: A Retrospective Cohort Study” in volume 14 on pages 4 and 5 of 9.
The authors wish to add the following amendments and corrections to their paper published in IJERPH [1].
A correction has been made to Section 3, third paragraph:
The sentences “but this tendency did not reach statistical significance (OR, 0.9; p < 0.302). After adjustment for the influence of confounders, the group with suspected pelvic fractures that were initially stabilized with a pelvic binder achieved significantly lower mortality (OR, 0.04; p < 0.030) in the univariate analysis, and also in the multivariate analysis (OR, 0.00326; p < 0.039) (Table 3).” should be corrected to “but this tendency did not reach statistical significance (OR, 0.95; p = 0.269). After adjustment for the influence of confounders, the group with suspected pelvic fractures initially stabilized with a pelvic binder achieved significantly lower mortality in multivariate analysis (OR, 0.00326; p = 0.039) (Table 3).”.
  • Error in Table 
On page 5 of 9, Table 3, the univariate OR (95% CI) and p-value of the “Logistic regression analysis of risk factors” column were incorrectly calculated. We have corrected this critical error. The updated Table 3 should be as follows:
Table 3. Logistic regression analysis of risk factors.
The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused and state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. The original article has been updated.
