The information is obtained through interviews with 美国心脏协会 volunteers who are physicians, other healthcare professionals or experts; 和/or compiled from data assembled by the organization’s staff. All stories receive statistical- 和 science-based reviewed by the 美国心脏协会’s team of science 和 medicine advisors. 所有内容都由我们的AHA工作人员在线审查和发布.

因为我们是一个以科学为基础的组织, review of all stories by science 和 medicine advisors is a critical step in all editorial production. Internal staff manages a database of review 和 assign each for review by at least one advisor.  If not approved, there is a feedback loop, which will ultimately require additional review.
