Correction to: International Journal of Arrhythmia (2021) 22:2 https://doi.org/10.1186/s42444-021-00030-2

Following publication of the original article [1], the authors would like to correct a sentence in the first paragraph of the ‘Background’ section.

The sentence originally read:


A change in the body position immediately after straining release, in the form of assuming a flat body position along with a 45 s passive leg raise (known as the modifed valsalva maneuver (MVM)), showed higher efcacy (> 40%) in terminating SVT in ED [2].


The sentence should read (the change has been highlighted in bold typeface):


A change in the body position immediately after straining release, in the form of assuming a flat body position along with a 15 s passive leg raise (known as the modifed valsalva maneuver (MVM)), showed higher efcacy (>40%) in terminating SVT in ED [2].


The original article has been corrected.
