Tiny Perfusion Letter #175

Tiny Perfusion Letter

HBD to you, HBD to you, HBD dear TPL, HBD to youuuuu....

Around this time, two years ago, we thought it would be nice to share all the literature we found around perfusion with our colleagues and to all the members of the cardiac surgery team and adjacent professions.

The TPL was born...

We started with one subscriber, did some mouth-to-mouth advertising and, with ups and downs, have now 332 people, reading the most recent literature in the field.
You are one of them, thanks for staying.
❤️

Share the TPL with your colleagues and peers, and have them share it with theirs.

The advantages? Its simplicity, ad-free, fee-free, no surprises. Just the essence.

We're ready for another year!

Enjoy and Share
