Erratum to: Warfarin dose prediction in children using pharmacometric bridging – comparison with published pharmacogenetic dosing algorithms

Erratum to: Eur J Clin Pharmacol (2013) 69:1275–1283

DOI 10.1007/s00228-012-1466-4

We would like to bring your attention to an error in the article ”Warfarin dose prediction in children using pharmacometric bridging – comparison with published pharmacogenetic dosing algorithms” published in European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology volume 69, year 2013, pages 1275-1283. The error was purely a typo and has not influenced any of the results presented.

The typo is in Equation 1 (page 1276), which currently reads:

$$ {\mathrm{CL}}_{\mathrm{i}}={\mathrm{CL}}_{\mathrm{s}}\cdot {\left(\frac{{\mathrm{BW}}_{\mathrm{i}}}{{\mathrm{BW}}_{\mathrm{i}}}\right)}^{0.75} $$

(1)

After correction Equation 1 should read:

$$ {\mathrm{CL}}_{\mathrm{i}}={\mathrm{CL}}_{\mathrm{s}}\cdot {\left(\frac{{\mathrm{BW}}_{\mathrm{i}}}{{\mathrm{BW}}_{\mathrm{s}}}\right)}^{0.75} $$

(1)

where CL_i represents the typical clearance in an individual with the bodyweight BW_i, and CL_s represent the typical clearance in an individual with the bodyweight BW_s.

We sincerely apologies for any confusion this may have caused.
