Education, Training and Development
 
London Perfusion Science is very proud of its education, training and development programme. As well as being enjoyable and rewarding for staff, it is a good source of public relations for the company and therefore a considerable amount of time and money is invested. Table 1 gives examples of some of the study days, lectures and training sessions we have organised. The company is involved with the BSc in Biomedical Engineering at Queen Mary, University of London (a good source of trainee Perfusionists), the MSc in Surgery at Imperial College and the MSc in Perfusion. We also have strong links with our
profession's International Journal, 'Perfusion'. Within our contracted hospitals we run at least three training sessions a month on a variety of subjects across surgery, anaesthetics and nursing (ITU, Theatres, etc.)
We have trained 4 perfusionists in the past 4 years and have set our training standards above our governing bodies requirements. Our Perfusion exchange program has hosted exchanges from places such as New York, Beijing, Amsterdam and Poland.

The reputation of our education and training programme has grown significantly in the past two years. This is partly because it was prioritised as a five year goal, but also due to the work being carried out by our pioneering autologous therapies department (involving Platelet Gels, Isolated Growth Factors, Fibrin Glues) in the Spinal, Orthopaedic and more recently Tissue Viability disciplines.

  
 

We are research active in a variety of fields including Platelet Sequestration and Cell Salvage and work closely with bodies such as the National Blood Service and the Medical Defence Union with the objective to improve techniques, protocols and perfusion related patient outcomes.
