Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiac arrest remains one of the most critical challenges in emergency and intensive care medicine, with outcomes highly dependent on timely intervention and evidence-based practices. In recent years, significant advancements have been made in understanding the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiac arrest across diverse patient populations and clinical settings.
We invite researchers, clinicians, and innovators to contribute to this Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine on ‘Clinical Advances in Cardiac Arrest and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation’ by submitting original articles that explore novel strategies and emerging evidence in managing cardiac arrest. We are particularly keen to include cutting-edge science related to high-risk groups and special populations, such as paediatric patients, pregnant women, trauma victims, and cases of in-hospital cardiac arrest.
Submissions may include clinical trials, observational studies, systematic reviews, translational research, and innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence and precision medicine approaches. We also welcome interdisciplinary research that bridges gaps across various medical specialities.
Our goal is to promote knowledge that drives improved outcomes and informs future guidelines. By sharing your innovative work with our readership, you will help shape the next generation of cardiac arrest care.
Join us in advancing the science of resuscitation. Submit your manuscript and be part of a growing community dedicated to saving lives.
