What Cardiac Perfusion Do We Offer?

perfusion

Cardiac Perfusion Technology

Cardiac perfusion technology is the foundation of heart surgeries, ensuring the heart and lungs continue functioning while a patient is under anesthesia. Our services include:

● Operation and management of heart-lung machines
● Oxygenation of blood during surgery
● Regulation of body temperature and blood flow

perfusion

Cardiac Perfusion Test

A cardiac perfusion test assesses
blood flow to the heart muscle,
diagnosing conditions such as:

● Coronary artery disease
● Myocardial ischemia
● Heart blockages

perfusion
Cardiac Perfusion Scan

A cardiac perfusion scan is an advanced imaging test that helps evaluate heart function and circulation. It involves:

● Injecting a radioactive tracer
● Using a gamma camera to capture heart images
● Analyzing blood flow efficiency

perfusion
Cardiopulmonary Bypass & Heart-Lung Machine

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a critical procedure during heart surgeries. The heart-lung machine temporarily takes over the functions of the heart and lungs, allowing surgeons to operate safely.

We specialize in managing CPB, ensuring patient stability and safety during cardiac procedures.

FAQs

What is a cardiac perfusion test used for?

A cardiac perfusion test evaluates blood flow to the heart, detecting blockages and areas of reduced oxygen supply.

How does the heart-lung machine work?

The heart-lung machine pumps oxygenated blood throughout the body while the heart is temporarily stopped during surgery.

What does a cardiac perfusionist do?

A cardiac perfusionist manages the heart-lung machine, ensuring stable blood circulation and oxygen levels during heart surgeries.

How long does it take to become a certified cardiac perfusionist?

Most cardiac perfusionist programs take 2-4 years, including coursework and hands-on training.

What is the role of cardiopulmonary bypass in surgery?

Cardiopulmonary bypass allows surgeons to operate on a motionless heart while maintaining blood circulation and oxygenation.
