Published in The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, the updated guidelines are a result of a collaboration between the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) Heart Failure and Transplantation, Pediatric and Infectious Disease Councils.

Chaired by Dr. Mandeep R. Mehra, professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, and medical director of the Heart and Vascular Center at Brigham and Women's Hospital - both in Boston, MA - the revised guidelines for heart transplantation candidacy address some of the issues that have arisen since such guidelines were first put in place in 2006.

One key issue has been heart transplantation eligibility for patients with certain medical conditions; the 2006 guidelines stated that patients with particular illnesses should not be considered for the procedure.

    Hey are using Wordpress for your blog platform?
    I'm new to the blog world but I'm trying to get started and create
    my own. Do you require any coding expertise to make your own blog?
    Any help would be really appreciated!

    Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you're using?
    I'm looking to start my own blog soon but I'm having a hard time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I'm looking for
    something completely unique. P.S Sorry for being
    off-topic but I had to ask!

    Its like you read my mind! You seem to know a lot about
    this, like you wrote the book in it or something.
    I think that you can do with a few pics to drive the message home
    a bit, but other than that, this is fantastic blog. A fantastic read.
    I will definitely be back.
