Manuscript Editing for Critical Care Nurse Journal Articles
Critical Care Nurse is a clinical practice journal providing current, evidence-based information on the bedside care of critically and acutely ill patients. The American Association of Critical-Care Nurses publishes it bimonthly. Its editor in chief is at the University of Central Florida College of Nursing.
The journal accepts quality improvement studies under SQUIRE 2.0, case reports under CARE, and review articles. Feature articles generally run no more than 3,000 words and columns 2,000, excluding abstract, references, tables, and figures. References follow the AMA Manual of Style, 10th edition, listing the first three authors and et al when there are more than six. A structured abstract of up to 250 words is written in the third person, with three to five keywords. Drugs take generic names, and units are SI with conventional units in parentheses. Each author signs the journal's authorship and disclosure form. Review is blinded. Submissions go through the CCN online system.

Manuscript Editing and Proofreading for Critical Care Nurse
We offer three levels of manuscript editing depending on what your manuscript needs. Each is described below so you can choose the service that fits where your draft is right now.
Grammar and usage, awkward phrasing, repetition, and passive voice corrected, then clarity, concision, sentence structure, transitions, and tone, with your style manual applied throughout and a final proofread. For authors whose argument and structure are settled.
Clarity, emphasis, and paragraph structure: topic sentences, transitions, and sentences reordered within a paragraph, with every fact and claim kept as you wrote it. Includes copy editing and a final proofread.
Spelling, punctuation, typos, capitalization, grammar, and usage corrected with minimal wording changes, for manuscripts that have been edited and need a last check before submission to Critical Care Nurse.
AACN's instructions for authors cover article types, abstracts, and references. If you have reviewer comments from an earlier submission, send them with your manuscript and we will address each one. If you have questions about which service is right for your manuscript, contact us directly. We respond to every inquiry the same day during business hours.
Our scientific editing services include nursing and health sciences copy editing, line editing, and AMA and APA citation formatting. Academic proofreading covers the final read. If English is your second language, see English language editing for researchers. We also prepare articles for the American Journal of Critical Care and the Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing.
