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.

    Hi! Quick question that's totally off topic.
    Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks
    weird when viewing from my iphone 4. I'm trying
    to find a template or plugin that might be able to resolve this issue.
    If you have any suggestions, please share. Many thanks!

    Greetings, I believe your site might be having browser compatibility problems.
    Whenever I take a look at your site in Safari, it looks fine however
    when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping issues.
    I merely wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Besides that, great
    website!

    Today, I went to the beachfront with my kids. 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 totally off
    topic but I had to tell someone!

    I'm really enjoying the design and layout of your blog.
    It's a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here
    and visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create your theme?
    Great work!
