View Point

The Viewpoint section of JSAN focuses on the exchange and debate of ideas related to key issues in the field of interest of the journal. Different types of papers might qualify as Viewpoint. In general, Viewpoints are subset of articles that reflect a particular position adopted by a person or a group. It is an organized perspective about a scholarly topic or issue associated with anesthesia, intensive care and pain medicine. A Viewpoint must be clearly expressed, and demonstrate a thorough and broad understanding of the literature and practices in the field. The opinion expressed must be clearly presented and lead to insights and possibly new and interesting perspectives. JSAN expects a Viewpoint paper to stimulate discussion in the community that will result in advancing our knowledge and understanding of contemporary issues as well as practice.

While the subjective nature of Viewpoints manuscripts should be taken into account, high scholarly standards for relevance, documentation, organization, and content pertain. The author must establish a context for why the manuscript is justified and must point toward the implications or consequences that might follow from the opinions expressed in the article.
