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.

    Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic however I'd figured
    I'd ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing a blog article or
    vice-versa? My site discusses a lot of the same topics
    as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
    If you're interested feel free to send me an email.
    I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!

    I'm amazed, I have to admit. Rarely do I come
    across a blog that's both educative and entertaining, and let me tell you, you've hit
    the nail on the head. The problem is an issue that too few people are speaking intelligently about.
    I am very happy that I found this during my hunt for something regarding this.
