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.

    Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles?

    I mean, what you say is important and everything.

    However imagine if you added some great pictures or video clips to give your posts
    more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this site
    could definitely be one of the greatest in its niche.
    Amazing blog!

    Just as he is about to kill the JSA, Adam arrives, and engages Sabbac,
    however is slowly shedding as Sabbac's power can harm
    him.

    Hey there! I know this is kind of off-topic but I needed to ask.
    Does operating a well-established blog such as yours require a massive
    amount work? I'm brand new to blogging but I do write in my diary every day.
    I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my experience and views online.
    Please let me know if you have any ideas or tips for new aspiring blog owners.
    Thankyou!

    My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he's tryiong none the less.

    I've been using WordPress on a number of websites for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform.
    I have heard very good things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?

    Any kind of help would be really appreciated!

    Cameron deliberate to shoot the sequels back-to-back
    and to begin work "as soon as the novel is nailed down".
