      The authors regret that an error occurred in the following sentence: “Although we did not perform comparisons with the other five approaches, reported by Fijacko et al., 4 we found the “four-finger ruler” technique very friendly to users, novel and easy to perform due to trainings”.
      The authors would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.

The optimal hand position due to chest compression was reviewed by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) with recommendation of the middle or center of the chest.
