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 extremely impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your weblog.
    Is this a paid theme or did you modify it
    yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing,
    it's rare to see a great blog like this one nowadays.

    Its such as you read my mind! You appear to grasp so much about
    this, like you wrote the guide in it or something.
    I feel that you simply could do with a few % to power the message house a little
    bit, however instead of that, that is magnificent blog.
    An excellent read. I'll definitely be back.

    You really make it appear really easy with your presentation however I
    find this topic to be actually something that I believe I'd never understand.

    It kind of feels too complicated and extremely huge for me.
    I'm looking ahead for your subsequent post, I'll try to get
    the hold of it!
