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.

    I do trust all the ideas you've offered in your post.
    They're very convincing and can certainly work.

    Still, the posts are too brief for beginners. May you please extend them a little from subsequent time?
    Thank you for the post.

    Howdy! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog
    platform are you using for this site? I'm getting tired
    of Wordpress because I've had problems with hackers and I'm looking at options
    for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
