Erratum to: Protocol for the PINCER trial: a cluster randomised trial comparing the effectiveness of a pharmacist-led IT-based intervention with simple feedback in reducing rates of clinically important errors in medicines management in general practices

The Original Article was published on 01 May 2009

Correction

Following the publication of our article [1] we noticed an error in the Methods section. In the sub-section 'Describing baseline prevalence of medication-related problems' the denominator for the following secondary outcome measures is incorrectly stated:

Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ six months without a thyroid function test in the last six months (numerator)/

Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ three months (denominator)

This should read:

Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ six months without a thyroid function test in the last six months (numerator)/

Patients prescribed amiodarone for ≥ six months (denominator)
