Correction

After publication of their conference abstract [1], the authors found the following error:

In the 'Results' section, "Of the 97 patients, NHL (30.9%) and AML (26.8%) accounted for most haematological diagnoses. A total 24.7% were post-BMT, and 36.1% had chemotherapy within a month of admission or on the ICU", the proportion of patients with NHL should be 28% and for those post-BMT it should be 28%.
