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.

    also clear their motive, and that is also happening with this piece of writing which I am reading
    at this time.

    Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog
    platform are you using for this website? I'm getting tired of Wordpress because I've
    had issues with hackers and I'm looking at alternatives for another platform.
    I would be fantastic if you could point me in the direction of
    a good platform.

    With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright infringement?
    My site has a lot of exclusive content I've either written myself or
    outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it
    up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any solutions to help prevent content from being stolen? I'd truly
    appreciate it.
