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.

    Can I simply just say what a relief to discover someone
    that truly knows what they are talking about over the internet.
    You certainly understand how to bring an issue to light and make it important.
    A lot more people really need to read this and understand
    this side of the story. I was surprised you aren't more popular since you certainly have the gift.

    Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?

    A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog jump out.

    Please let me know where you got your theme. Appreciate it https://www.scorestimes68.com

    Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
    I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues with
    hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform.
    I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good
    platform.
