Cardiac surgery is a very complex field of medicine that continues to evolve, and cardiopulmonary bypass is an integral part of this field, it is challenging for a trainee rotating in the cardiac surgery room to acquire scientific and practical knowledge of clinical perfusion without a good reference text.

 This book fills the need for a clear, focused, and concise text on managing clinical perfusion with up-to-date knowledge. This book equips the trainee, the junior cardiac anaesthesiologists, the junior cardiac surgeon, and the junior perfusionist with the fundamental concepts necessary for success in this field.
