New Journal Healthcare (ISSN 2227-9032) Launched

We are pleased to announce the launch of Healthcare, a new open access journal on the healthcare system, industry, technology, policy and regulation research. The journal is led by the Editor-in-Chief Dr. Manu Malbrain of the ZNA High Care Burn Unit, Antwerpen, Belgium. In 2003, Dr. Malbrain was the first ESICM Chris Stoutenbeek Award winner with a study protocol on different intra-abdominal pressure measurement methods.

In his opening editorial, Dr. Manu Malbrain discusses the specific need for this healthcare journal.

The journal Healthcare welcomes theoretical and research papers on healthcare science and service research. We hope that Healthcare will become an invaluable resource to those working in healthcare science and service research and the wider scientific community.
