Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Inherited cardiac disorders in paediatric populations represent a heterogeneous group of conditions with a significant impact on morbidity and mortality, often characterised by complex genetic backgrounds and variable phenotypic expression. This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive overview of current challenges and emerging advances in the diagnosis, risk stratification, and management of these conditions in children and adolescents. Particular emphasis will be placed on cutting-edge developments, including genetic testing, advanced cardiovascular imaging, and the integration of artificial intelligence in clinical practice. We invite submissions of original research, reviews, and clinical studies addressing inherited cardiomyopathies, channelopathies, and related disorders, with a focus on improving patient outcomes and advancing personalised medicine.
