The International Journal of Orthopaedic and Trauma Nursing is a peer-reviewed journal that seeks to promote the development
and exchange of specialist knowledge within orthopaedic and trauma practice. The journal is devoted to nurses and other health professionals
involved in the care of patients with orthopaedic and associated traumatic conditions. Following on from the tradition of the Journal
of Orthopaedic Nursing, the journal aims to promote best practice through the dissemination of high quality research findings, debate
within practice, exploration of professional issues and the development of health care practice as well as innovative roles.
The
journal publishes a wide range of papers from primary research and evidence updates to personal reflections on practice, education and
management issues. Supporting sections include literature reviews, book reviews and international policy digests and Letters to the Editor
and Editorials are encouraged which shed additional perspectives on papers published in the journal and matters affecting orthopaedic
and trauma practice.
The mission of the journal is to facilitate global networking that results in the sharing of evidence-based
practice, the dissemination of ideas and knowledge amongst orthopaedic and trauma nurses alongside other members of the health care team,
including the organisations which support such practitioners in developing their knowledge and practice.
The editorial team encourages
and supports contributions from both experienced and first time authors.
