Figure 1 was printed with incorrect text. In the Figure, “Radial artery” should be corrected to “Axillary artery.”

Fig. 1

Perpendicular approach group (PA group) versus the shallow needle approach group (SA group). When the scalp vein needle (23 G, 3/4’) was advanced into the axillary artery, the needle was directed perpendicular to the axillary artery in the PA group (A), whereas in the SA group, a shallow needle approach to the axillary artery was used (B).

The corrected figure is shown below.
