EWMA Journal is the official journal of European Wound Management Association (EWMA) and it is published three times a year - in January, May and October.

EWMA Journal is CINAHL indexed and provides peer-reviewed original scientific articles, reviews, clinical information, and  information about developments in wound healing and management across Europe. It is distributed free of charge to EWMA members and to members of national wound healing organisations in Europe, as well as to a wider audience via the internet. 

The journal is written in English, the official language of EWMA, but writing assistance or translation is available for authors for whom English is not their first language.  

Scientific Reviewing

EWMA Journal is a peer-reviewed journal. All papers will initially be reviewed by the Editor and then reviewed by two members of the Scientific Review Panel with expertise in the paper's subject area.

EWMA Journal Editorial Policy

The Editorial Board wishes to encourage the submission of high quality scientific and clinical papers from all countries in Europe.

The editorial team provides assistance with English when needed. Please contact the EWMA Secretariat for more information.

In order to make available quality research papers to a wider audience, EWMA Journal prints translated articles of previously published papers in national, non-English wound healing journals (there will be no more than one such paper per issue).

Other than the above mentioned translations, the journal retains copyright on all papers published. The Editor and the Editorial Board take the issue of plagiarism extremely seriously and expect all authors to acknowledge all sources of material in their papers when submitted for review prior to publication.

Authors are expected to follow the instructions in the Author Guidelines and also to comply with instructions from the Consort Statement etc. when reporting research studies.
