Correction: Schmitz et al. Validation of the Palliative Care and Rapid Emergency Screening (P-CaRES) Tool in Germany. J. Clin. Med. 2025, 14, 2191

Error in Figure

In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 2 as published. The validated version of the P-CaRES tool included in the article is missing one item in the first section of the tool. Figure 2 currently shows only seven items in Part 1 of the P-CaRES tool. The corrected figure should include eight items, according to the final validated version of the tool.

The missing item is “Subjektive Einschätzung des Befragers—Erhöhtes Risiko eines vorzeitigen Versterbens: Beispiele: Hüftfraktur > Alter von 80; schwerwiegende Traumata bei Senioren (multiple Rippenfrakturen, intrakranielle Blutungen), fortgeschrittenes AIDS, etc.” This corresponds to the English item “Provider Discretion—High chance of Accelerated Death. Examples: Hip fracture, Major trauma in the elderly, Advanced AIDS, etc.”, as shown in Figure 1, which displays the original tool in English.

The corrected Figure 2 appears below. The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
