All aspects of paediatric and congenital cardiac care are covered within the journal. The content includes original articles, brief reports, editorials, reviews, and papers devoted to continuing professional development. High-quality colour figures are published on a regular basis, and without charge to the authors. Regular supplements are published containing the abstracts of the annual meetings of the Association for European Paediatric and Congenital Cardiology (AEPC), along with other occasional supplements. These supplements are supplied free to subscribers. Previous supplements documented the proceedings of the meetings organised annually by the Johns Hopkins All Children's Heart Institute and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. The editorial team is currently looking to expand the number of supplements published each year.
The vision of Cardiology in the Young is to use print and electronic media to improve paediatric and congenital cardiac care.
The mission of Cardiology in the Young is to be a premier global journal for paediatric and congenital cardiac care - an essential journal that spans the domains of patient care, research, education, and advocacy, and also spans geographical, temporal, and subspecialty boundaries.
