About Emergency Care and Medicine

Aims

Emergency Care and Medicine (ISSN 2813-7914) is an open-access journal that disseminates rigorously peer-reviewed publications regarding all research areas of emergency medicine and surgery. It publishes review and overview articles, reports of original investigations, clinical guidelines, brief reports, editorials, viewpoints, commentaries to the accepted or published papers, and letters to the editor. Only high-quality information for patients can be published on the journal’s patient page. Special interest will be given to papers which bring new insights to specific communities. We encourage scientists and medical practitioners to publish their experimental and clinical work results in as much detail as possible. The details of the studies must be provided according to FAIR principles (https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/) so that the results can be reproduced. To enhance the quality and transparency of health research, we recommend following reporting guidelines published at https://www.equator-network.org.
