| Purpose of the Journal
The primary objective of The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing (JCN) is to foster expert clinical practice of cardiovascular nurses. Issues address the physiological, psychological, and social responses of cardiovascular patients and families in a variety of environments.
Publication Policy
JCN publishes both unsolicited articles (research reports, literature reviews, articles on innovations in practice and clinical questions) on any cardiovascular topic, and invited articles on planned topics. Authors are encouraged to submit (1) original research articles; (2) analytical reviews that codify existing knowledge; (3) clinical articles that synthesize information in a specific area or guide the practice of specialists in the field; and 4) articles describing innovations in practice. The decision to accept or reject an article will be based on the judgment of peer reviewers and the editors.

Figures,
- Cite each figure in the text in consecutive order. If a figure has been previously published, in part or in total, acknowledge the original source and submit written permission from the copyright holder to reproduce or adapt the material. Include a source line. Type "Source: Author" on figures that you created. This will help LWW identify the need for permissions for each figure.
- Supply a caption for each figure, typed double spaced on a separate sheet (Figure Legends). Captions should include the figure number and title, definitions for all abbreviations used, explanatory statements, notes, or keys; and source and permission lines if borrowed.
A) Four Steps for Submitting Artwork
- Learn about Digital Art creation. Visit www.lww.online.com
a. Click “For Authors?and go to the Artwork tab.
b. Here you will also find specific Digital-Imaging Software Instructions to help support your efforts to create perfect images the first time.
- Create, Scan and Save your artwork according to the Digital Artwork Guideline Checklist.
- Compare your final figure to the Target Digital-Imaging Results listed below.
- Upload each figure to Editorial Manager in conjunction with your manuscript text and tables.
B) Digital Artwork Guideline Checklist
Here are the basics to have in place before submitting your digital art.
- Artwork saved as TIFF and EPS files. Do not save TIFFs as compressed files. Powerpoints are also acceptable.
- Artwork created as the actual size (or slightly larger) it will appear in the journal. (To get an idea of the size images should be when they print, study a copy of the journal to which you wish to submit. Measure the artwork typically shown and scale your image to match.)
- Crop out any white or black space surrounding the image.
- Text and fonts in any figure are one of the acceptable fonts: Helvetica, Times Roman, Symbol, Mathematical PI, and European PI.
- Color images are created/scanned and saved and submitted as CMYK only. Do not submit any figures in RGB mode because RGB is the color mode used for screens/monitors and CMYK is the color mode used for print.
- Line art saved at a resolution of at least 1200 dpi.
- Images saved at a resolution of at least 300 dpi.
- Each figure saved as a separate file and saved separately from the accompanying text file.
- For multi-panel or composite figures only: Any figure with multiple parts should be sent as one file with each part labeled the way it is to appear in print.
Remember:
- Artwork generated from office suite programs such as CorelDRAW, MS Word, Excel, and artwork downloaded from the Internet (JPEG or GIF files) cannot be used because the quality is poor when printed.
- Cite figures consecutively in your manuscript.
- Number figures in the figure legend in the order in which they are discussed.
- Upload figures consecutively to the Editorial Manager web site and number figures consecutively the Description box during upload
- All electronic art that cannot be successfully uploaded must be submitted on a 3 1/2-inch high-density disk, a CD-ROM, or an Iomega Zip disk, accompanied by high-resolution laser prints of each image.
Tables
- Tables should be on separate pages placed after the references.
- Number tables consecutively and supply a brief title for each. Always define abbreviations in a legend at the bottom even if they have already been defined in the text.
- For footnotes to appear in the legend, use roman superscript alphabets. Abbreviations should be defined in a legend at the bottom of the table. List abbreviations in alphabetical order; do not include the word "and" before the last abbreviation.
- Cite each table in the text in consecutive order.
- If you use data from another published or unpublished source, obtain permission and acknowledge fully.
