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 not know whether it's just me or if perhaps everyone
    else encountering issues with your site. It appears as
    though some of the written text on your content are running off
    the screen. Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to
    them too? This may be a problem with my web browser because I've had this happen previously.
    Cheers

    I'm really enjoying the theme/design of your web site.
    Do you ever run into any browser compatibility problems?
    A couple of my blog visitors have complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but looks
    great in Chrome. Do you have any recommendations to help fix this issue?

    Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it
    to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
    There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her
    ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is
    completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

    I am really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your weblog.

    Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality
    writing, it's rare to see a nice blog like this one today.
