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.

    Having read this I believed it was extremely informative.
    I appreciate you taking the time and energy to put this short article together.

    I once again find myself personally spending
    way too much time both reading and leaving comments.

    But so what, it was still worth it!

    Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up.
    The words in your post seem to be running off the screen in Opera.
    I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do
    with web browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.

    The layout look great though! Hope you get the problem resolved soon. Kudos

    Hey! I know this is kind of off-topic but I needed to ask.
    Does building a well-established website like yours
    require a lot of work? I am brand new to blogging but I
    do write in my journal everyday. I'd like to start a blog
    so I will be able to share my personal experience and feelings online.
    Please let me know if you have any recommendations or tips for brand new aspiring bloggers.
    Thankyou!
