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'll immediately take hold of your rss feed as I can not find your email

    When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is
    added I get four e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove
    people from that service? Thank you!

    Hello! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with Search Engine Optimization? I'm trying to get my blog
    to rank for some targeted keywords but I'm not seeing
    very good results. If you know of any please share.
    Many thanks!

    Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I submitted and
    say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog. I as well am an aspiring blog
    blogger but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any helpful hints
    for beginner blog writers? I'd definitely appreciate it.

    What a material of un-ambiguity and preserveness of precious knowledge about unexpected feelings.

    Hi just wanted to give you a quick heads up and
    let you know a few of the pictures aren't loading correctly.
    I'm not sure why but I think its a linking issue.
    I've tried it in two different browsers and both show the same
    results.
