In the article, “Effects of the combination of mask preconditioning with idazolam pretreatment on anxiety and mask acceptance during pediatric inhalational induction and postoperative mask fear in children”, which appeared in the pages 1908-1914, issue 12, vol. 125 of Chinese Medical Journal,[1] the article title is incorrectly written as “Effects of the combination of mask preconditioning with idazolam pretreatment on anxiety and mask acceptance during pediatric inhalational induction and postoperative mask fear in children” instead of “Effects of the combination of mask preconditioning with midazolam pretreatment on anxiety and mask acceptance during pediatric inhalational induction and postoperative mask fear in children”.The correct title of the article should appear as: Effects of the combination of mask preconditioning with midazolam pretreatment on anxiety and mask acceptance during pediatric inhalational induction and postoperative mask fear in children.These have now been corrected and reposted online.
