Digitalization
Corrects a potentially important dosage error regarding digitalization in children with cardiac dysrhythmias.
Concerning the December issue of PIR, Dr. Sidney W. Berezin of Spring Valley, New York has written regarding a potentially important error in the article "Cardiac Dysrhythmias in Children" (3:190, 1981). On page 193, in the first column, 9 lines from the bottom, it was stated that after conversion "giving half the loading dose and following with two 1/4-Wsec/lb doses at eight-hour intervals...." What was intended was to say to give half the loading dose and following with two 1/4 loading doses at eight-hour intervals. The reference was to digitalization, not cardioversion.
