    STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
    HeartRhythm provides rapid online electronic (3-5 business days) and print publication of the most important current scientific developments in the field of cardiac arrhythmias and electrophysiology. The Journal publishes both clinical and basic original, peer-reviewed articles devoted to the diagnosis and treatment of heart rhythm disorders, as well as the electrophysiology of the heart and blood vessels, including ion channels and biophysics, pharmacology, genetics, modeling, and cellular and in vivo electrophysiology. In general, review articles are invited, but unsolicited submissions will be considered. All articles are peer-reviewed. Articles from the Editor's institution are processed by a guest editor. See aims and scope.

    COPYRIGHT ASSIGNMENT
    Copyright assignment is a condition of publication and authors are required to assign the copyright to the publisher prior to publication.

    MANUSCRIPT and FIGURE PREPARATION (See manuscript format and categories for further details)

    Manuscripts must be submitted online at: External link http://ees.elsevier.com/jhrm.
    For text files, Microsoft Word is preferred, although any editable text file is acceptable (e.g., .doc, .txt, .rtf). Separate files for each figure are required. TIF or EPS figure files are strongly preferred, at the standard resolutions (i.e. 300 dpi for photos, 1200 dpi for line art) and scaled to size. Other figure formats may be supported provided artwork guidelines on External link http://ees.elsevier.com/jhrm are strictly followed. PDF files cannot be used for typesetting purposes for either text or figures. Do NOT exceed the required number of figures by submitting separate figure panels as A, B, C, etc. If separate figure panels are used, they must be SCALED TO SIZE AND COMBINED INTO A SINGLE FIGURE THAT CANNOT EXCEED ½ JOURNAL PAGE.

    Supplementary images and videos are encouraged. These should be considered as scientific evidence, similar to figures and tables. Therefore, they are assumed to be original. If published previously, the reference must be cited with permission exactly as required for previously published figures. Finally, as with figures, they should not include logos, symbolic landmarks, or any other identification of the origin.

    Arrange the contents in the following order:
    1. Title page (Include degrees for all authors and corresponding author contact information, and ALL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST)
    2. Abstract - - Not to exceed 250 words. (Required for original and review articles)
    3. Key words (5-10) are very important since the annual index will be based on them.
    4. List of abbreviations used in the manuscript (Use ONLY those that are commonly accepted.)
    5. Text (Double-spaced, single columned with a minimum of 1-inch margins on all four edges.
    6. References (Cite up to 6 authors. If more than 6, cite 3 and et al.)
    7. Tables
    8. Figure legends
    9. Figures

    MANUSCRIPT FORMAT

    Title Page:
    Please include a brief and descriptive title of the article (which should indicate key features of the article so that literature searches will identify the article), a short title of fewer than 50 characters, authors full names (more than 8 must be justified), academic degrees, hospital and academic affiliations, acknowledgment of ALL sources of financial support, potential conflicts of interests for ALL authors, and the name, address, phone and fax numbers, and E-mail of the individual responsible for editorial correspondence and/or reprint requests.

    Abstract (page 1):
    Please include a brief abstract (without references) of fewer than 250 words for original articles. Divide the abstract into sections: Background, Objective, Methods, Results, and Conclusion that state the importance and potential implications of the observations. Following the abstract, list 5 to 10 key words suitable for indexing.

    Glossary of abbreviations used in the manuscript: Avoid ALL abbreviations other than standard units of measurement and common abbreviations, such as RV, LV, etc.

    Text:
    Begin the text on page 3 and organize into sections: Introduction, Methods, Results, Discussion, and Conclusion, with appropriate subheadings to make the sections easily understood. A section on Clinical implications for experimental articles may be worthwhile. Explain abbreviations at first mention, followed by the abbreviation in parentheses, and limit use only to a few commonly accepted words. References, tables, and figures should be cited in numerical order. Avoid jargon, cliches, and laboratory slang. References to pacemakers, defibrillators, and leads must adhere to code structures and usage conventions set forth by NASPE/BPEG code. Place acknowledgments at the end of the text, before references.

    The manuscript must not exceed 5000 words including abstract, references, tables, and figure legends, a combined total of 8 figures and/or tables, and 35 references.

    Authors whose native language is not English are STRONGLY advised to seek appropriate grammatical assistance. Poorly written manuscripts are at a disadvantage.

    References: Number references in the order in which they are cited in the text. Include references to unpublished material or personal communications in the text in parentheses. Abbreviate titles of periodicals according to the style of Index Medicus, National Library of Medicine. List the first 6 authors in each reference. If more than 6, list 3 and et al. following exactly the format and punctuation shown below.

    Manuscript Categories:

    Case Reports Submissions are limited to 4 authors and 2500 words, including text, references (less than15), figure legends, and less than or equal to3 figures. No abstract included. Complex, one-of-a-kind, examples not likely to have widespread educational value are discouraged. The first report of an observation likely to have important clinical or experimental implications is favored.

    Contemporary and Historical Reviews (Solicited and Unsolicited)
    Review articles should contain a brief abstract and less than or equal to4000 total words, including references, and tables. References are less than or 
equal to30 and must be less than or equal to5 years old. Use other articles to incorporate older references.

    Creative Concepts
    Submissions to this section are for articles that contain untested or unproven new ideas with little supporting evidence but must have compelling rationale. The idea should be one that is difficult or impossible to test definitively, or would take a long time or significant resources to do so. No abstract included. Articles must be less than or equal to4000 total words, including references and tables.

    Featured Arrhythmia
    Manuscripts (no abstract) are limited to 1500 words, less than or equal to3 illustrations and less than or equal to4 authors. Arrhythmias will be judged based on novelty and educational value as a teaching case.

    Pacemaker/ICD Problems
    Manuscripts (no abstract) are limited to 1500 words, less 
than or equal to3 illustrations and less than or 
equal to4 authors. Article will be judged based on novelty and educational value as a teaching case.

    Images
    Submissions to "Electrophysiology Images and Movies" are limited to 1 journal page. Narrative (495 words for a 1 column figure; 425 words for a 1½ column figure), and no more than 2 illustration panels and 4 authors. Figure legends should not be used, but up to 5 reference citations are permitted. Images are judged according to their aesthetic quality, the novelty, importance, and effectiveness of their scientific or clinical message, or their utility as a teaching tool.

    Authors can also include a single electronic movie (e.g. QuickTime or MPEG1 formats) file or computer animation (e.g. as Power Point file) that expands or enhances the message of the printed images. Animations or movies must provide novel or especially useful means of conveying known principles (e.g. Animations or movies that effectively teach/portray an electrophysiological mechanism or process). If an electronic movie or animation is submitted, the authors must also provide 1 or 2 frames of images (which may appear in print) that convey the essence of the movie's content.

    Published images, movies, and animations will be made available in high resolution format via a web site to subscribers to the HeartRhythm journal.

    Letters to the Editor
    Letters should be double-spaced, not exceeding 400 words. Letters will be reviewed and are subject to editing. They should not contain original data or figures. If accepted for publication, a copy of the letter will be sent to the author(s) of the original article, if applicable. The author(s) will have an opportunity to respond with new material that will be considered for publication with the letter. Due to space limitations, with only occasional exception, letters are now EPUB only. Letters, with rare exception, will be EPUBLISHED only.
