The ISHLT membership is comprised of over 3000 members from over 45 countries, representing more than 15 different disciplines involved in the management and treatment of end-stage heart and lung disease, including mechanical circulatory support, pulmonary hypertension and infectious diseases. Our members are consumers of a wide variety of medical and pharmaceutical supplies, devices and services.
