The perfusion profession does not require continuing education or additional certification, unless the perfusionist wants to change jobs. true or false

FALSE Let's take a look at what a Perfusionist is and does. This is a person who uses a "heart-lung machine" during surgeries that require the patients heart to be stopped so the surgeon can operate on a still, unbeating heart. This person needs to keep up to date on the latest developments in their field of expertise. I would certainly hope that this person continues their education during their career. And in fact, the American Board of Cardiovascular Perfusion Certification (ABCP) has the following in their job description of a Perfusionist. "CPPs are required to recertify every year" "... each three-year reporting period every CCP must earn 45 Continuing Education Units ..." So definitely FALSE. A perfusionist is required to recertify and continue their education throughout their career.

Ithink the correct answer would be that since the disease is passed by a hand shake and can be cured with antibiotics that it could be an infection. an example could be that once when i was working in a bush camp, i got blood poisoning from blood blisters that got infected. our cook did not wash his hands after going to the bathroom and he passed staphyloccus on to the crew he fed. one other person also got a bad similar infection on the side of his face. i had to be rescued by helicopter and taken to the hospital so i wouldn't die!
