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.

    Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to safeguard against
    hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked hard on. Any suggestions?

    With havin so much content do you ever run into any problems of
    plagorism or copyright infringement? My blog has
    a lot of completely unique content I've either written myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of
    it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any methods
    to help stop content from being ripped off? I'd
    certainly appreciate it.

    When someone writes an paragraph he/she keeps the plan of a user in his/her mind that how a user can understand it.

    Therefore that's why this piece of writing is perfect. Thanks!
