Abstract :
In the article titled “Risk factors associated with inpatient cardiac arrest during emergency
endotracheal intubation at general wards” published on August 2019 [1], there was plagiarism suspicion as the abstract, limitation, and results are quite similar with those in the article
by Wardi et al. [2]. In response, the author explained that there are limitations in clinical research, such as the fact that many similar papers exist and that this study was not entirely
new ideas, and that the target groups were set differently with retrospective study nature [2-
5]. The author admitted to omitting to cite this paper [2] as a reference in the course of writing
the paper. The Editorial Board of Acute and Critical Care decided to publish a corrigendum
to correct this plagiarism controversy according to the flowchart of COPE. We would like to
apologize for any inconvenience that may have caused.
