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 am really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever
    run into any browser compatibility problems? A handful
    of my blog visitors have complained about my
    website not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome.
    Do you have any advice to help fix this issue?

    Hi! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog.
    Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out
    pretty quick. I'm thinking about setting up
    my own but I'm not sure where to begin. Do you have any tips or suggestions?

    Cheers
