Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular diseases present a growing burden to society. Especially, atrial fibrillation and heart failure are expected to increase enormously in the coming years, and pose a challenge to cardiovascular disease management. Innovations in (bio)technology enable us to monitor the cardiovascular system with implantable or wearable sensors more precisely and even continuously. This generates many unanswered questions, for example: Which sensed parameter will have the greatest impact on disease outcome? How can we best use the enormous amounts of data generated by such sensor systems? Clinicians face the challenge of determining how to distill the most relevant information from the big data. Additionally, can the sensor data reliably empower the patient to take control over their cardiovascular disease?
The current COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the use and need of telemonitoring, and has also boosted its acceptance. In this Special Issue of Sensors, we highlight new research in the field of sensors in cardiovascular medicine. We hope your high-quality research will have an impact on future disease management.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
