Overview

Perfusionists are operating room specialists who conduct cardiopulmonary bypass. That is, they pump and oxygenate the blood of patients whose hearts or lungs are stopped, usually during open heart surgery.

Key Features

In the Clinical Perfusion program from Upstate Medical University SUNY, we encourage students to observe an open-heart procedure at a medical center and conduct an informational interview with a clinical perfusionist.

Occasionally, perfusionists work outside the operating room, providing support for patients with circulatory failure.
