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.

    My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP.
    I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.
    But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on a variety of websites for about a year and am worried
    about switching to another platform. I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net.

    Is there a way I can import all my wordpress posts into it?
    Any help would be really appreciated!

    Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this
    site. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's
    tough to get that "perfect balance" between superb usability and appearance.
    I must say that you've done a excellent job with this.
    Also, the blog loads very quick for me on Internet explorer.
    Exceptional Blog!

    Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic
    nevertheless I'd figured I'd ask. Would you be
    interested in trading links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa?
    My website goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I feel we
    could greatly benefit from each other. If you might be interested feel free to send me an email.
    I look forward to hearing from you! Excellent blog by the way!

    But yeah, thanx for spending time to talk about this subject here on your internet site.
