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.

    Its such as you read my thoughts! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the
    e-book in it or something. I feel that you just can do with
    a few % to pressure the message house a bit, however instead of
    that, this is magnificent blog. A fantastic read.
    I will certainly be back.

    I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was curious
    what all is required to get set up? I'm assuming having a blog like
    yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very web savvy so I'm not 100% positive.
    Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Kudos

    Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you knew where
    I could find a captcha plugin for my comment form? I'm using the
    same blog platform as yours and I'm having problems finding
    one? Thanks a lot!
