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.

    Howdy, i read your blog from time to time and i own a
    similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam responses?

    If so how do you prevent it, any plugin or anything you can suggest?
    I get so much lately it's driving me mad so any assistance is very much appreciated.

    Hi terrific blog! Does running a blog like this take a massive amount work?
    I have absolutely no understanding of computer programming however I had been hoping to
    start my own blog in the near future. Anyways, should you have any suggestions or techniques for new blog owners please
    share. I understand this is off subject but
    I simply wanted to ask. Thanks!

    First of all I want to say excellent blog! I had a quick question in which
    I'd like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to know
    how you center yourself and clear your thoughts
    before writing. I've had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out.

    I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems
    like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying to
    figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips? Thank you!
