Advancing cardiovascular care through knowledge, innovation, and unity
Dedicated to elevating patient outcomes and empowering perfusion professionals nationwide
"Precision in circulation, commitment to life"
The nation's foremost collective of certified perfusionists, driving excellence in cardiopulmonary care
"A clinical perfusionist is a highly specialized healthcare professional trained to operate extracorporeal circulation equipment during medical procedures where cardiac or respiratory function must be artificially supported."
The Perfusion Society of Sri Lanka is the nation's foremost collective of certified perfusionists, driving excellence in cardiopulmonary care. Founded on the pillars of education, innovation, and advocacy, we unite specialists from major medical institutions to advance perfusion science through evidence-based practice.
Our society collaborates with global partners like the International Society for Perfusion Technology (ISPT) and AmSECT to implement world-class protocols. We ensure Sri Lanka's perfusion community remains at the vanguard of life-support techniques—from ECMO to minimally invasive procedures—while nurturing the next generation of clinical leaders.
