PerfWeb 106 Day 1 – The Perfusionist of the Future and Scientific Standards in Evidence

Learning Objectives By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to: Analyze the evolving role of the perfusionist in the future healthcare landscape. Evaluate how evidence quality directly impacts patient outcomes in perfusion practice. Critically assess whether the Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology (JECT) aligns with modern scientific standards. Apply principles of evidence-based medicine to improve clinical decision-making and outcomes in perfusion. Identify challenges and opportunities for perfusionists in adapting to technological, clinical, and ethical changes. Content Overview 1. The Perfusionist of the Future Perfusion as a specialty has always evolved in response to advances in cardiac surgery, extracorporeal support, and critical care. This session will explore how future perfusionists may need to redefine their role in healthcare teams. The discussion will focus on technology integration, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, and predictive analytics. Participants will consider how these tools may assist perfusionists in real-time decision-making, patient monitoring, and workflow efficiency. Additionally, the session will examine the professional challenges of the next decade: maintaining relevance in a multidisciplinary team, advancing educational pathways, and adapting to ethical questions surrounding emerging technologies such as normothermic regional perfusion (NRP), mechanical circulatory support, and extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). Future perfusionists must be both technical experts and critical thinkers. They will need to master new tools while maintaining strong clinical judgment in life-saving scenarios. The speaker will also highlight career growth opportunities, including leadership roles in perfusion education, research, and hospital administration. 2. Bad Evidence Results in Bad Outcomes: Does JECT Meet Scientific Standards? Evidence-based medicine is the foundation of safe and effective perfusion practice. However, the quality of evidence in perfusion literature varies widely. This session will critically evaluate the Journal of ExtraCorporeal Technology (JECT) and its role in shaping practice guidelines. Key themes will include: Defining scientific rigor: What makes research credible, reproducible, and clinically relevant? Common pitfalls in perfusion research: Small sample sizes, retrospective designs, and weak statistical analysis. The impact of flawed evidence: How weak studies can misguide clinical protocols, leading to patient harm. Raising the bar: Strategies to improve the quality of perfusion research, including stronger peer review, multicenter collaboration, and integration with broader cardiovascular research communities. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on how they can personally contribute to improving research standards. Whether through contributing to clinical studies, adopting critical appraisal techniques, or mentoring younger perfusionists, every practitioner plays a role in elevating the specialty. Conclusion PerfWeb 106 Day 1 offers a forward-looking and reflective discussion on two essential aspects of perfusion: the evolution of the profession and the quality of its evidence base. As technology, ethics, and patient expectations continue to evolve, perfusionists must adapt to remain indispensable in healthcare teams. At the same time, ensuring that practice is guided by rigorous, high-quality evidence is essential for improving patient outcomes and advancing the specialty. Attendees will leave this webinar with both visionary insights and practical tools to critically evaluate research, advocate for higher standards, and prepare for the perfusion profession of tomorrow.
