Manuscripts must strictly adhere to the submission guidelines; otherwise, the editor may reject them even before they undergo the review process. Articles will be reviewed by external academic peers who are members of the journal’s reviewer pool, consisting of esteemed academics from national and international institutions, under a double-blind review process. This process requires the anonymity of both authors and reviewers to ensure impartiality. Therefore, authors are requested not to include any identifying information in the manuscript.

All works will be reviewed by two external reviewers from institutions different from the authors' affiliations. If there is no agreement between the reviewers, a third reviewer will be consulted, whose decision will be final. Review articles are solicited by the Editorial Board. The History of Health section will be evaluated by the Editorial Board.

The review outcome can be one of the following:

1. Acceptance without changes.
2. Acceptance with minor changes. This does not require a second review by the reviewers.
3. Acceptance with major changes. This necessitates a new review by the reviewers. This process can be repeated up to three rounds. If the document is not recommended for publication by the third round, the article will be rejected without the option for resubmission. Upon receiving the reviewers' comments, the author has 30 calendar days to submit a revised version to the editor. If submitted after this period, the document will start a new review process.
4. Rejection.

The time between acceptance and publication of articles depends on the number of articles in the queue, typically around one month. Reviewers have four weeks to complete the review and provide their feedback once they receive the article.

To be published, an article must receive recommendations from two reviewers. The review decisions are final and not subject to appeal. The editorial coordination of Enfermería Investiga: Investigación, Vinculación, Docencia y Gestión reserves the right to make stylistic and editorial changes deemed necessary to improve the work, as well as to advance or postpone accepted articles to provide better thematic composition for each issue.
