PerfWeb 105 Day 2 focuses on the impact of hemoglobin on oxygen delivery (DO₂), a fundamental concept in perfusion practice. This session examines the relationship between hemoglobin concentration and systemic oxygen transport, with direct implications for patient safety and clinical decision-making during cardiopulmonary bypass. Designed for practicing perfusionists, board exam candidates, and healthcare professionals, the program...
This PerfWeb session focuses on perfusionist board exam preparation with a live Q&A panel of certified perfusionists. The faculty will answer challenging questions directly related to board certification, offering valuable insights for candidates preparing to enter the field. Additionally, the webinar examines the clinical application of ultrafiltration during cardiopulmonary bypass, highlighting its role in managing fluid stat...

This session dives into innovative machine perfusion techniques, advanced perfusates, and logistics breakthroughs aimed at extending organ viability and improving transplant outcomes. Packed with real-world case studies, expert insights, and interactive Q&A, this focused 1.2‑CEU webinar spotlights how modern technology is revolutionizing the way donor organs are preserved, transported, and ultimately saved.
Dive into the ethical dilemmas and controversies surrounding perfusion practices. This session, presented by Perfusion Education and streamed within the last month, tackles tough questions such as informed consent, allocation equity, risk-benefit analysis of experimental techniques, and real-world case studies. Essential for perfusionists, transplant professionals, and bioethicists, this discussion offers practical insights and sti...
A comprehensive literature review on Normothermic Regional Perfusion (NRP) led by Samir Patel, MD, CCP, LP. Streamed on June 2, 2025, this session explores the latest research and emerging technologies in NRP, spotlighting its clinical applications, ethical considerations, and protocol development in perfusion practice. Ideal for perfusionists and transplant specialists, this episode packs 1.2 CEUs of expert insight into a field re...
Poiseuille’s Law drives perfusion, and J. Basha, CCP, dissects why it’s our physics Bible. He’ll unpack flow’s reliance on pressure, radius, length, and viscosity—key to circuits and patients. I’ll recall early days when a tiny radius tweak tanked a case. You’ll apply it to cannulas, tubing, and viscosity control via temp and Hgb. Calculate flows, predict pressures, fix problems fast. Perfusionists live this; OR teams peek into our...
Protecting the heart is cardiac surgery’s core, yet RV dysfunction haunts us. J. Basha, CCP, digs into why and how to fight it. Basha will revisit cardioplegia basics—delivery, mixes, temps—then zero in on the RV’s quirks and vulnerability. I’ll share RV failures that taught me to watch it closer than the LV. Expect advanced moves: retrograde cardioplegia, RV tweaks, and handling pulmonary hypertension. Learn to spot and stop RV tr...
Stand Your Ground - Raging Fireside Chat
Presenter: J. Basha, CCP, Open to Audience
After two days of transplant deep dives, J. Basha, CCP, hosts a two-hour open chat to wrestle with the big issues—and you’re the spark. This is no passive wrap-up. Bring your takes on NRP ethics, OCS costs, or organ shortages. I’ll share 40 years of perfusion fights, like pushing for innovation when tradition stalled. We’ll spar over opt-out systems...
Mastering NRP for Organ Donation Success NRP is rewriting organ donation rules, and Matt Warhoover, CCP, takes you inside this bold frontier over a two-hour session. Using ECMO or bypass, NRP restarts circulation after circulatory death to recover organs in situ. Warhoover will cover cannulation, perfusion, and the ethics of this gray zone. I’ll weigh in on its promise—like turning DCD into multi-organ wins—and its hurdles. You’ll ...
Organ Availability for Transplant in the U.S.
Presenter: S. Patel, MD Time: 10:00–11:00
Transplantation saves lives, but the organ shortage is a brutal bottleneck. Dr. S. Patel digs into this crisis, where over 100,000 wait and too many don’t make it. He’ll lay out the stats, policies, and ethics—why donor rates lag and who gets priority. I’ll add my OR view: the highs of a transplant win, the lows when organs don’t come. Dr. Patel...
Stand Your Ground in the Raging Inferno Presenter: J. Basha, CCP, Open to Audience Participation

Basha will steer us through RAPP, Hgb thresholds, ultrafiltration, and fluid balance, but your questions and challenges fuel the fire. I’ll tos...
Benefits of Ultrafiltration
Presenter: J. Basha, CCP
Ultrafiltration hit perfusion like a lifeline, giving us control over fluid overload when diuretics alone wouldn’t cut it. J. Basha, CCP, leads this session to show why it’s a cornerstone of my practice after 40 years. Basha will break down how ultrafiltration strips out excess water and solutes via semi-permeable membranes, while keeping proteins and cells intact. It’s not just ...

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
