How to make relativistic correction to perturbation?

I want to know about relativistic correction to perturbation.

I searched but failed to find any teaching on this topic. Is it true that we just need to replace the non-relativistic Hamiltonian perturbation terms with the relativistic ones while leaving the perturbation formulae unchanged?

Thank for all reply and comments.

Thread 'Quantum behaviour of an electron around a positively charged sphere'

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
