Joe Basha's PerfWeb #102 Day 2 — Dissecting Poiseuille’s Law, Myocardial Protection, Hgb Debate - Right or Wrong? — Perfusion

Poiseuille’s Law drives perfusion, and J. Basha, CCP, dissects why it’s our physics Bible. He’ll unpack flow’s reliance on pressure, radius, length, and viscosity—key to circuits and patients. I’ll recall early days when a tiny radius tweak tanked a case. You’ll apply it to cannulas, tubing, and viscosity control via temp and Hgb. Calculate flows, predict pressures, fix problems fast. Perfusionists live this; OR teams peek into our world. After 40 years, I lean on Poiseuille daily—build your foundation here. Myocardial Protection Strategies: Why Do We Still See RV Dysfunction and Failure?

Protecting the heart is cardiac surgery’s core, yet RV dysfunction haunts us. J. Basha, CCP, digs into why and how to fight it. Basha will revisit cardioplegia basics—delivery, mixes, temps—then zero in on the RV’s quirks and vulnerability. I’ll share RV failures that taught me to watch it closer than the LV. Expect advanced moves: retrograde cardioplegia, RV tweaks, and handling pulmonary hypertension. Learn to spot and stop RV trouble from pre-op to post-op. Perfusionists need this; surgeons and anesthesiologists will align better with it. Crack the RV puzzle with us. Stand Your Ground: The AmSECT Guidelines on Hgb. Right or Wrong? Presenter: J. Basha, CCP, Audience Call-In.

AmSECT’s Hgb guidelines divide us—love ’em or hate ’em, they’re up for debate. J. Basha, CCP, leads this call-in clash. Basha lays out the rules, the evidence, and the gripes. Then it’s on: Do you stick to them or trust your gut? We’ll argue universal thresholds, transfusion risks, and adjuncts like EPO. Bring your stance—students, pros, all voices count. Refine your practice in this showdown. Join us to stand your ground or find new footing.
