Editorial Many of us find ourselves swamped with information at every level. Textbooks are out of date before they are printed, “expert” patients use internet search engines to glean information on rare conditions and end up knowing (or “believing” they know) more than many non-specialist clinicians and new research is reported by social media before papers are in print. Many of us receive tables of contents representing multiple journals and dozens of scientific papers every week. It is difficult to keep up! However, despite this plethora of information, the system has significant limitations! Established, mainstream print journals tend to be dominated by large and expensive multicentre clinical studies or, alternatively, by very small basic science investigations that examine minutiae within carefully controlled environments. Arguably, both of which are outside of the day to day working environment of most clinicians. It is increasingly clear that “real world” data are needed to help interpret the results of the carefully selected multicentre trial. Moreover, in congenital heart cardiology, we look after patients who have a diverse range of anatomic defects of widely varying complexity and an age spectrum that extends from conception to old age. Many of our patients have a unique combination of dysfunctional anatomy and physiology. This makes large, prospective studies extremely challenging to carry out. Consequently, it can prove difficult to publish congenital heart research in mainstream journals. In addition to issues related to congenital heart disease, existing subscription-based print journals are
