Journal of Electrocardiology

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Electrocardiology is devoted exclusively to clinical and experimental studies of the electrical activities of the heart.

It seeks to contribute significantly to the accuracy of diagnosis and prognosis and the effective treatment, prevention, or delay of heart disease.

Editorial contents include electrocardiography, vectorcardiography, arrhythmias, membrane action potential, cardiac pacing, monitoring defibrillation, instrumentation, drug effects, and computer applications.
