- Daniela Villegas tested positive for a prohibited substance, and had her results nullified. This effected the medal standings in (and her/Mexico's times) the women's: 100 free (58.71), 200 free (2:05.18), 400 free (4:24.21), 200 I.M. (2:24.17), 4x100 Free Relay (4:00.99) and 4x200 Free Relay (8:39.68).
- Venezuela originally finished second in the women's 4x100 Medley Relay at 4:27.84; however, the relay included Tahyani Villarroel who tested positive for a prohibited substance. The relay results was therefore nullified, and places adjusted.
