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 have been surfing online greater than 3 hours today, but I by no means
    discovered any interesting article like yours.
    It's pretty worth sufficient for me. In my opinion, if all site owners and bloggers made good content as you
    probably did, the web shall be a lot more useful than ever before.

    I'm amazed, I must say. Rarely do I encounter a blog that's
    equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you,
    you have hit the nail on the head. The problem is something that too few folks
    are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy I found this during my search for something concerning this.
