Join Us for the Perfusion Event of the Year

Perfusion is a profession built on rhythm, precision and teamwork. Perfusionists work alongside the entire intraoperative team to support the patient’s heart, sustain circulation and blood volume, and deliver evidence-based care that drives optimal outcomes.

This year’s theme, “Keepin’ the Beat — Hearts in Harmony,” celebrates both the science behind cardiovascular perfusion and the specialty itself. Just like in music, great team performance depends on everyone working in harmony and rhythm. Join us in Nashville, Music City, to celebrate our profession, learn the latest evidence supporting cardiovascular perfusion, and create new opportunities to advance our field and our shared outcomes. Can’t travel? Virtual attendance is available too.
