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 think the admin of this site is in fact working hard for his web site, for
    the reason that here every material is quality based information.

    After I initially left a comment I appear to have clicked on the
    -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now on whenever a comment
    is added I get four emails with the same comment. Perhaps there is a means you can remove me from that service?

    Many thanks!

    Woah! I'm really loving the template/theme of this
    website. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's hard to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and visual appeal.
    I must say you've done a fantastic job with this.
    In addition, the blog loads super quick for me on Opera.
    Excellent Blog!
