A Correction on Occupational stress profiles of prehospital and clinical staff in emergency medicine—a cross-sectional baseline study by Meyer, C., Chiapponi, C., von Kaufmann, F., Kanz, K.-G., and Hinzmann, D.

There was a mistake in Figure 2 as published. In the boxplots illustrating the stressor time pressure, the occupational groups emergency nurses and trauma surgeons on duty were inadvertently interchanged in the graphical representation. The corrected Figure 2 appears below. This correction does not affect the underlying data, analyses, or scientific conclusions of the article.

Distribution of stressors as boxplots for emergency dispatchers, emergency nurses and trauma surgeons. Data are shown on a 5-point Likert scale from 1 to 5. Each value corresponds to the subjectively perceived level of stressor (“1” = low stressor; “5” = high stressor).

Boxplots illustrate the distribution of perceived stressors across seven categories on a 5-point Likert scale, where 1 represents low stress and 5 represents high stress. Emergency dispatchers are shown in red, emergency nurses in orange, and trauma surgeons on duty in blue. Green points indicate the reference medians from the ISAK-K study of hospital physicians across all specialties.
