Correction to: Can J Anesth/J Can Anesth (2017) 64:1059–1070 DOI 10.1007/s12630-017-0920-2

In the article entitled: “A primer on nerve agents: what the emergency responder, anesthesiologist, and intensivist needs to know” published in the October 2017 issue of the Journal, Can J Anesth 2017; 64: 1059-1070, two doses in Table 3 contained errors and have now been corrected (and highlighted in bold) in the revised Table 3. In the table on page 1064, next to “Pralidoxime/Obidoxime/HI-6”, the second column should read: “Pralidoxime- Mild cases: 1-2 g iv over 5-10 min or im”. Also in the same row, the third column should read: “Individual doses should not exceed 2 g”.
