Heart-Palpitation.com is committed to providing accurate, clear and responsible health information. Medical knowledge evolves, and despite careful editorial and medical review, content may occasionally require correction or clarification.
Our Approach to Accuracy
We aim to base medical information on credible clinical evidence and authoritative sources appropriate to the topic. Content may be reviewed by qualified medical professionals when medical review is appropriate.
Our current medical team includes Dr. Albana Greca, medical author and family physician, and Dr. Benard Shehu, cardiologist and medical reviewer.
What We Correct
We may correct or update content when we identify:
- Factual or medical inaccuracies
- Incorrect statistics, values or units
- Outdated medical recommendations or guidance
- Incorrect or broken references
- Statements that could be misunderstood or require clarification
- Typographical errors that materially affect meaning
Minor Edits
Minor spelling, grammar, formatting and readability improvements may be corrected without a formal correction notice when they do not change the medical meaning of the content.
Significant Medical Corrections
If an error materially changes the medical meaning, safety implications or principal conclusion of an article, we aim to correct it promptly after verification.
Where appropriate, the article may also be updated to indicate that a substantive revision or medical review has occurred.
Updating Medical Content
A content update is not necessarily a correction. Articles may be updated because new evidence, clinical guidelines or diagnostic and treatment recommendations become available.
When appropriate, pages may display a publication date, update date or medical-review information so readers can better understand the status of the content.
How to Report a Possible Error
We welcome responsible feedback from readers, clinicians and researchers.
If you believe you have identified an error, please use our Contact Us page. When possible, include:
- The URL of the page
- The statement you believe may be incorrect
- A brief explanation of the concern
- A supporting medical or scientific source, if available
Review of Correction Requests
Submitting a correction request does not automatically mean that content will be changed. We may review the relevant evidence and, when appropriate, seek medical review before making a substantive change.
Our objective is to correct genuine errors while preserving medically accurate information when evidence supports the existing content.
