An important point was brought to the attention of the authors following publication of this manuscript. The point referred to the statement in the Methods section that the electronic patient data management system described uses median filtering to eliminate artefacts from the raw signal. While this was the information of the authors until now, reconfirmation with the company revealed that this was not the case and that the system collects raw signals at one minute intervals. Therefore, the respective statement in the Methods section should correctly read based on this new information:
"[...]. Hemodynamic and other vital parameters are collected at one minute intervals. [...]."
