The Work of Perfusionists Continues During the COVID-19 Pandemic
Committed to the study of perfusion, THI School of Perfusion students voluntarily continued their clinical rotations from March to June of 2020. This team of students was the only perfusion program in the country whose students were so committed to remain in their rotations as most programs were closed during this timeframe.
