perfusion technology
Perfusion technology refers to the methods and equipment used to maintain blood circulation and oxygen delivery to organs during medical procedures, especially surgeries. It involves a perfusionist operating a heart-lung machine that temporarily takes over the functions of the heart and lungs, allowing surgeons to operate on the heart or other areas without blood flow. This technology is crucial for heart surgeries, organ transplants, and other complex procedures, ensuring patient safety and optimal outcomes by managing blood flow, temperature, and oxygen levels effectively during surgery.
