    During cardiopulmonary bypass, clinical training of the perfusion student is limited to developing mastery of the fundamental perfusion skills employed during these procedures during the initial stages of training. The perfusion student should be provided an opportunity to test, refine, and develop these skills in a low risk environment in order to become successful clinically. Perfusion simulation training offers the perfusion student this opportunity.
    Perfusion simulation training has become recognized as an educational imperative among academic institutions offering perfusion training and education. This training has been shown to accelerate knowledge transfer, competency, and clinical performance. The availability of commercial perfusion simulation systems is limited, and these systems are expensive. The Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE) currently has a hemodynamic perfusion simulation system that was custom designed and evaluated to serve the needs of the perfusion student in the absence of a commercial perfusion simulation system.
    The current system was designed for the perfusion student to initiate and terminate cardiopulmonary bypass and to adjust for changes in systemic vascular resistance during cardiopulmonary bypass. This paper describes the design and evaluation of a hemodynamic cardioplegia delivery simulation that is to be an adjunct to the current system. The adjunct allows the perfusion student to repetitively practice cardioplegia administration in the form of antegrade and retrograde infusions during cardiopulmonary bypass. It is designed in an open fashion to allow for future system additions. Testing of the adjunct system indicates that it offers the perfusion student usability as well as an accurate representation of conditions observed during cardiopulmonary bypass.
