Pediatrics & Nursology welcomes original research, systematic and scoping reviews, brief reports, study protocols, quality improvement reports and correspondence relating to the nursing care of newborns, children, adolescents and their families. Please read the Focus and Scope statement before submitting; manuscripts outside the journal's scope are declined without external review.

Submission is made online through the journal's system and requires an author account. If you already have an account, log in and begin a new submission; if not, register first. Corresponding authors should be prepared to supply an ORCID identifier for each author.

Before submitting, confirm that your manuscript includes: ethics committee approval with the approval number and date; documentation of parental or guardian consent and, where applicable, child assent; the registration identifier for any clinical trial; the reporting checklist appropriate to your design (CONSORT, PRISMA, STROBE, COREQ, SQUIRE 2.0 or another as relevant); a data availability statement; author contributions in CRediT format; and declarations of funding and competing interests. Full requirements are set out in the Author Guidelines and Submission Preparation Checklist.

All submissions undergo editorial screening and double-anonymous peer review. Authors retain copyright in their work.
