Perfusion Technology

Perfusion Technology

Perfusion Technology is a specialized paramedical course that focuses on operating advanced life-support equipment, especially the heart-lung machine, during critical surgeries like open-heart procedures.

Perfusionists play a vital role in maintaining blood circulation, oxygen levels, and organ function when the patient’s heart and lungs are temporarily stopped during surgery.

This course provides in-depth knowledge of cardiovascular physiology, extracorporeal circulation, medical equipment handling, and critical patient care.
