Role you're checking

Perfusionist

Healthcare

Perfusionists operate and monitor the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) machine that replaces heart and lung function during open-heart surgery. Working alongside cardiac surgeons and anaesthesiologists in CTVS (cardiothoracic and vascular surgery) operating theatres, they prime and circuit-check the heart-lung machine, manage blood flow, gas exchange, temperature, and cardioplegia delivery throughout the operation, then wean the patient off bypass safely. India's demand is driven by a high burden of rheumatic heart disease, congenital defects, and coronary artery disease — with major cardiac surgery volumes at AIIMS Delhi, Apollo Hospitals, Fortis Escorts, Narayana Health, Medanta, SRMC Chennai, Madras Medical Mission, PGIMER Chandigarh, and Amrita Institute Kochi. Entry requires a B.Sc. or M.Sc. in Perfusion Technology from a Perfusion Science programme and certification from IBPS (Indian Board of Perfusion Science).
