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 don't know whether it's just me or if everyone else
    encountering problems with your site. It appears as though some
    of the text in your content are running off
    the screen. Can somebody else please comment 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 before.

    Cheers

    Wonderful blog! I found it while searching on Yahoo News.
    Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News?

    I've been trying for a while but I never seem to get there!
    Many thanks

    This design is wicked! You most certainly know how to keep
    a reader amused. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Excellent job.
    I really loved what you had to say, and more
    than that, how you presented it. Too cool!

    An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a coworker who had been conducting a
    little homework on this. And he actually ordered me dinner simply because I
    discovered it for him... lol. So allow me to reword this....
    Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for
    spending time to discuss this issue here on your blog.
