Acute Pericarditis . On page 2198, in the right-hand column, lines 8 through 13 should have read, "ST-segment elevation also may be seen in patients with an early repolarizing pattern. The most reliable feature in distinguishing pericarditis from early repolarization may be the ratio of ST-segment elevation to T-wave height in lead V₆; when this ratio exceeds 0.24, acute pericarditis is almost always present," rather than, "The most reliable distinguishing feature may be the ratio of ST-segment elevation (in millimeters) to T-wave amplitude (height in millimeters) in lead V₆. When this ratio exceeds 0.24, acute pericarditis is almost always present," as printed.
