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 persuade 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 numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
    I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a
    way I can import all my wordpress posts into
    it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello there! 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 success.
    If you know of any please share. Cheers!

    When I originally left a comment I appear to have
    clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now on every time a comment is
    added I recieve four emails with the same comment.

    Perhaps there is an easy method you can remove me from that service?
    Kudos!

    I have to thank you for the efforts you've put in writing this website.
    I am hoping to see the same high-grade content from you in the future as
    well. In fact, your creative writing abilities has
    motivated me to get my very own blog now ;)

    Howdy! I know this is somewhat off topic but I was wondering which blog platform
    are you using for this site? I'm getting sick
    and tired of Wordpress because I've had issues with hackers and I'm looking at
    alternatives for another platform. I would be fantastic if
    you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
