Perfusion and Cardiac Support
Perfusion hardware is often bought as OEM components, which moves the verification burden to the buyer.
Choosing between support modalities
IABP, ECMO and ventricular support devices differ in indication, staffing and cost per day. Match the modality to the programme rather than to the demonstrator.

Components, records and standby
Confirm part authenticity, sterility documentation and the standby plan as one decision. A perfusion programme with an unverified component is one bad batch from a cancelled list.

Respiratory and Anaesthesia
Oxygen, ventilation and anaesthesia equipment carries continuous-duty expectations.
Ventilators and oxygen supply
Ventilators, blenders and concentrators are specified around the gas supply and the duty cycle, plus the consumable circuit. Confirm all three before the purchase.

Anaesthesia and neonatal equipment
Anaesthesia machines and neonatal devices add monitoring, scavenging and training requirements. Those are part of the specification, not accessories to it.
