The above article has been republished online in order to correct errors in three of the tables. In table 3, part of the haemodynamic criteria for post-capillary PH was incorrectly presented as “PAWP ≤15 mmHg”, and should have been presented as “PAWP >15 mmHg”. The value for cardiac index specified in table 32 should have been <2.5 L/min/m2 and not <2.5 L/min. Table 7 contained typographic errors. The corrected versions of these tables are reproduced below.
