Abstract
Research on Lyme disease and Lyme carditis is rapidly evolving, with new evidence constantly emerging on the diagnosis and treatment of LC. Future areas of research include prevention of Lyme complications, potential vaccine development for Lyme disease, and studies on the long-term effects of Lyme carditis. Interprofessional collaboration and patient participation is key in advancing future knowledge on Lyme disease.
