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'm impressed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that's both educative and interesting, and without a doubt, you have hit the nail on the head.

    The issue is something too few folks are speaking intelligently
    about. Now i'm very happy that I came across this during my search for
    something relating to this.

    I say to you, I certainly get irked while people think about

    to hit the nail upon the top and defined out
    the whole thing without having side-effects , people
    could take a signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

    Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with
    hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work due to no back up.
    Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?
