CORRECTION

In the article by Creager MA, Belkin M, Bluth EI, et al., “2012 ACCF/AHA/ACR/SCAI/SIR/STS/SVM/SVN/SVSKey Data Elements and Definitions for Peripheral Atherosclerotic Vascular Disease: A Report of the American Collegeof Cardiology Foundation/American Heart Association Task Force on Clinical Data Standards (Writing Committee toDevelop Clinical Data Standards for Peripheral Atherosclerotic Vascular Disease),” which appeared in the January 17,2012 issue of the Journal (J Am Coll Cardiol 2012;59:294–357; http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jacc.2011.10.860) thefollowing correction should be made:

On p. 307, in Table 2, Lower Extremity PAD Data Elements the ABI Abnormal Value of “< 0.90” should be changedto“ � 0.90.” Therefore, the definition of ABI Value should read as follows:

-

ABI Value Indicate the ABI value for each leg. Choose 1 of the following:� Normal (ABI 1.00–1.40)� Abnormal (ABI �0.90)� Borderline (ABI 0.91–0.99)� Noncompressible arteries (ABI >1.40)
