1 European Society of Cardiology ESC CONGRESS 2019 TOPICS FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION

2 Topics At the time of abstract submission, the submitter must select one single topic to index the abstract. It is important to carefully select the best matching topic as this choice will determine under which area the abstract will be reviewed and graded. Therefore, submitters should consider all potential options available before selecting the submission topic. The topic list is organised by main topics and several layers of subtopics to maximize precision. Appropriately choosing the main topic and first subheadings is more important than the lowest layers of subtopics. If the abstract is accepted, presenters will be required to select 3 additional topics/keywords. These are important to optimise indexing of the abstract in the programme and in the ESC 365 congress library. This serves to optimise search results and enhance visibility of the research.
