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.

    Excellent blog! Do you have any hints for aspiring writers?

    I'm planning to start my own website soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you advise starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that
    I'm completely overwhelmed .. Any recommendations?
    Thank you!

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be really something that I think I
    would never understand. It seems too complex and extremely broad for me.
    I'm looking forward for your next post, I'll try to get the hang of it!

    When I originally commented I appear to have clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment
    is added I get 4 emails with the same comment. Is
    there an easy method you can remove me from that service?
    Many thanks!
