This blended learning programme includes high-quality, research-led education that focuses on adult and paediatric perfusion principles and practice. This addresses both the academic and professional requirements to enable perfusionists to practice in Great Britain or Ireland. The programme is specifically for Limited Registrant clinical perfusion scientists who have secured a post at an accredited cardiac centre in Great Britain or Ireland. Limited Registrants will usually have a primary perfusion qualification from overseas, and a minimum of 12 months post-qualifying experience working independently as a perfusionist, or be GB or Ireland accredited perfusionists who have not practised for 4 years or more. It will equip you with enhanced knowledge, understanding and critical awareness of the current approaches and emerging research in the field. It includes: - Academic and research skills training, including study design and data analysis. - Advanced physiology of blood and organs that are affected by cardiopulmonary bypass and thereby relevant to perfusion science. - Principles and practical aspects of the currently used techniques in adult and paediatric perfusion science. The programme provides a firm theoretical grounding in the basic scientific principles and clinical applications of perfusion science. In conjunction with work-based clinical practical training, this will provide you with the essential skills for employment as a clinical perfusion scientist in GB or Ireland, or further qualifications in this field.
