Perfusionist explains the heart-lung machine for cardiac surgery

A patient's heart needs to be arrested (not beating) for certain types of surgery. What happens to the blood that still needs to be circulated to the rest of the body? In this video, a perfusionist who runs the heart-lung machine shows how exactly this process works. Many thanks to Caleb for his time and expertise, as well as Dr. Mike Smith at Quinnipiac for the opportunity to film in this simulation lab. 0:00 Start 2:12 The basics 7:01 Advanced components 10:57 Safety mechanisms 14:18 ECMO and VAD 20:10 Career in perfusion The information in this video is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
