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.

    Great blog! Do you have any suggestions for aspiring writers?
    I'm planning to start my own website soon but I'm a little lost on everything.
    Would you suggest starting with a free platform like Wordpress or go
    for a paid option? There are so many choices out there that
    I'm completely confused .. Any tips? Appreciate it!

    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied
    on the video to make your point. You definitely know what
    youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just
    posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something informative to read?

    Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this
    website. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's very hard to get that "perfect balance" between usability and appearance.
    I must say you have done a amazing job with this. Also, the blog loads super fast
    for me on Safari. Exceptional Blog!
