  • Title: Patient and nurse criteria for heart transplant candidacy.
    Author: Corley MC, Huff S, Sayles L, Short L.
    Journal: Medsurg Nurs; 1995 Jun; 4(3):211-5. PubMed ID: 7780475.
    Abstract:
    The criteria nurses and patients believe should be used to allocate hearts for transplantation were explored and compared in a descriptive study. Although the majority of both groups agreed that patients with AIDS or who are HIV positive should not receive a transplant, the two groups agreed very little on the other criteria. This research has implications for clinical care and ethical decision making.
