Scope & Guideline
Empowering Clinicians with the Latest in Cardiovascular Medicine
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Interventional Cardiology Techniques:
The journal focuses extensively on the latest techniques and methodologies in interventional cardiology, including percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), and various minimally invasive procedures. - Device Innovation and Evaluation:
There is a consistent emphasis on the development and clinical evaluation of new devices, including drug-eluting stents, bioresorbable scaffolds, and closure devices, aiming to improve patient outcomes and procedural efficiency. - Clinical Outcomes and Risk Assessment:
The journal publishes studies assessing clinical outcomes following interventional procedures, including analyses of risk factors, complications, and long-term prognosis, which are crucial for guiding clinical practices. - Multidisciplinary Approaches:
Research often highlights collaborative approaches in managing complex cases, integrating insights from cardiology, radiology, and surgery to enhance patient care. - Emerging Technologies:
The journal explores the application of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, advanced imaging techniques, and new pharmacological strategies in the context of cardiovascular interventions.
Trending and Emerging
- Hybrid and Minimally Invasive Techniques:
There is a growing focus on hybrid procedures that combine surgical and interventional techniques, as well as on minimally invasive approaches that aim to reduce recovery times and improve patient outcomes. - Real-World Evidence and Registry Studies:
An increase in studies utilizing real-world data and registry analyses reflects a trend towards understanding the effectiveness of interventions in routine clinical practice, beyond controlled trial settings. - Patient-Centered Outcomes:
Research is increasingly addressing patient-reported outcomes and quality of life measures, emphasizing the importance of patient perspectives in evaluating the success of interventions. - Use of Advanced Imaging Techniques:
The integration of advanced imaging technologies, such as OCT and IVUS, is becoming more prevalent, allowing for improved assessment of vascular lesions and treatment outcomes. - Focus on Comorbidities and Multidisciplinary Management:
There is a noticeable trend towards exploring the impact of comorbidities on intervention outcomes, as well as the importance of multidisciplinary approaches in managing complex cardiovascular patients.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Surgical Techniques:
There has been a noticeable decrease in the publication of studies focused solely on traditional surgical interventions, as the emphasis shifts toward minimally invasive and catheter-based alternatives. - Generalized Risk Assessment Models:
The focus on broad risk assessment models without specific applications to interventional procedures has waned, as more targeted approaches emerge that consider individual patient characteristics and procedural contexts. - Basic Cardiac Physiology Studies:
Research centered on basic cardiac physiology, while still important, appears to be less prominent in the journal, as more attention is directed toward applied clinical research and procedural outcomes. - Single-Center Studies:
There is a trend away from single-center studies that lack generalizability, with a preference for multicenter trials that provide a broader understanding of treatment effects across diverse populations. - Conventional Imaging Techniques:
The reliance on conventional imaging techniques like basic angiography has diminished, as there is a growing preference for advanced imaging modalities such as optical coherence tomography (OCT) and intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) that offer more detailed insights.
