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.

    First off I would like to say fantastic blog! I had a quick question in which I'd like to ask if
    you don't mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before writing.
    I've had trouble clearing my mind in getting my ideas out there.
    I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first
    10 to 15 minutes are wasted just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or tips?
    Kudos!

    issues. When I look at your blog in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.

    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, awesome blog!
