Tiny Perfusion Letter #505

Tiny Perfusion Letter

Good morning, day, afternoon or evening
(we suppose you don't read this in the middle of the night. Although...)

Anyway, we have 2 household announcements

First, the good people of the brand new website Perfusfind have kindly asked if they could share the content of the TPL on their website. And who are we, to refuse that? Visit them here for mucho mucho information on perfusion and more

Secondly, the Joint Perfusion COVID-19 Task Force has held an excellent webinar on the outstanding results of a center in New York, USA. The webinar can be found here and the accompanying publication can be found as the first title of this 505th TPL

That's all Folks!!

Enjoy & Share
