Clinical Perfusionist - Pediatric
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting.
The posting includes:
- Position Title: Clinical Perfusionist - Pediatric Department Pediatric Heart OR (some weird). Not needed as heading.
- Job Description: General Description (some prose). Could be "About the role" maybe. We can treat that as About the role.
- Responsibilities: "Essential Responsibilities" list (many bullet-like sentences). Also "General Responsibilities" note.
- Minimum Qualifications: Education, Experience, License(s)/Certification(s)/Registration(s) Required.
- Knowledge, Skills And Abilities: list.
- Benefits: mention "We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including PTO, 401(k), medical and dental plans, and many more." That's benefits content.
- Pay: Not mentioned.
- Schedule: Not mentioned.
Thus we should include sections: About the role (from General Description), Responsibilities, Requirements (maybe combine Education/Experience/License?), Qualifications (maybe same as Requirements?), Skills (Knowledge, Skills And Abilities), Benefits.
We need to decide naming: The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can use those exact headings.
We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. Also not include Job ID etc.
We need to use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "#C Current OU Health Employees - Please click HERE to login." and "OU Health is an equal opportunity employer." Also remove the benefits generic sentence? That's substantive: benefits package. Keep that.
We need to format.
Let's extract content.
General Description paragraph:
"Under the direction of the Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery, the Cardiothoracic Attending Surgeons and the Chief Perfusionist, the Clinical Cardiovascular Perfusionist is responsible for conducting extracorporeal circulation and ensuring the safe management of cardiorespiratory functions during any medical situation where it is necessary to support or replace the patients cardiopulmonary/circulation functions. Responsible for monitoring the necessary physiologic variables during cardiopulmonary bypass; administering blood byproducts; administering anesthetic agents and drugs through extracorporeal circuit, maintaining accurate records; following established protocols in accordance with hospital policy and directives from attending surgeon."
That's prose. We'll put in
.
Responsibilities: list of bullet-like sentences under "Essential Responsibilities". Also "General Responsibilities" note: "The above statements in this job description are intended to depict the general nature and level of work assigned to the employee(s) in this job. The above is not intended to represent an exhaustive list of accountable duties and responsibilities required." That's more generic; we could include as prose maybe but it's somewhat boilerplate. Might be considered generic but it's part of description. However instruction: remove duplicated lines, boilerplate. This is somewhat generic but still part of job description. Might keep as prose under Responsibilities? But we already have essential responsibilities list. The general responsibilities note is more of a disclaimer; could be omitted as boilerplate? It's not exactly EEO but it's a standard disclaimer. Might be considered boilerplate; safer to omit? The instruction: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." This is not exactly those categories, but it's a generic disclaimer. Might be considered boilerplate; but it's part of the job description. I'd keep it as a short paragraph under Responsibilities maybe.
But we need to use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So essential responsibilities list items each as
- . We'll need to break each sentence into list items.
Let's extract essential responsibilities sentences:
- Prepares patient and equipment for extracorporeal support.
- Reviews the patient’s medical record, documents and all appropriate medical and laboratory information. This includes but is not limited to diagnosis, planned surgical procedure, current drug therapy, allergies, renal, hepatic, metabolic and coagulation data.
- Evaluates and prepares equipment for bypass. Ensures sterile assembly, degassing and priming of all cardiopulmonary bypass components. This includes, but is not limited, to the appropriate reservoir, filters, tubing, heat exchangers, oxygenator, cardioplegia delivery system, temperature monitoring equipment and heater-cooler.
- Assembles the intraoperative cell saver autotransfusion equipment. Understands autotransfusion (cell saver) technology and how to integrate it with the perfusion circuit.
- Oversees all aspects of the safe operation and monitoring of the bypass and cardioplegia delivery system. Must recognize, interpret and manage changes during perfusion.
- Performs administration of Blood Products per Hospital Policy.
- Maintains Point of Care equipment in working order to ensure reliability of tests according to departmental practices and procedures per Hospital Point of Care Policies..
- Administers appropriate drugs per Attending Surgeon and Anesthesiologist orders.
- Determines appropriate fluid replacement, including crystalloid and colloid, based on hematocrit, blood loss, pump volume, and urine output.
- Performs various techniques of myocardial protection under the direct supervision of the Attending Surgeons.
- Performs other procedures related to intraoperative activities involving extracorporeal assist or circulation.
- Understands and is able to operate with assistance specialized perfusion circuits including: ascending arch aneurysms, left ventricular bypass, total circulatory arrest, femoral vein-femoral artery bypass, and percutaneous bypass.
- Operates LVAD, ECMO and other long term cardiopulmonary support, as well as assisting with organ retrieval on our new cardiac transplant program.
- Participates in clinical studies, ensuring data collection and verification as required, in accordance with protocol.
- Participates in laboratory studies, utilizing expertise to perform animal studies as required, in accordance with protocol.
- Attends mandatory in-service educational meetings according to departmental and hospital policy.

- Makes presentations to other in-service programs within hospital, as required.
- Supervises students in perfusion training programs.

- Follows established hospital infection control and safety procedures
That's many items.
Now Minimum Qualifications:
Education: Requires a minimum of a Bachelor’s degree. Must have graduated from an accredited Perfusion Education program. Degree requirement may be waived for applicants who were admitted to the examination process before April 15, 1981, or have been previously certified by the American Board of Cardiovascular Perfusion (ABCP).
Experience: Cardiovascular Perfusionist experience in a fast-paced academic hospital is preferred.
License(s)/Certification(s)/Registration(s) Required: Certification in Cardiovascular Perfusion by the American Board of Cardiovascular Perfusion or eligible to take the examination for certification. Current license issued by the Oklahoma Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision as a Perfusionist. Out-of-state licensed perfusionists must obtain state licensure within 90 days of employment. Current Basic Life Support issued by the American Heart Association required upon hire.
We could combine Education, Experience, License into a Requirements section. Or separate Requirements and Qualifications? The instruction says we can use headings like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to decide what goes where.
Typically: Requirements = education, experience, license. Qualifications maybe same? But we have also Knowledge, Skills And Abilities separate.
We could make:
- Requirements: Education, Experience, License/Certification.
- Qualifications: maybe not needed separate; but we could put same as Requirements? Might be redundant. Better to have Requirements for education/experience/license, and Skills for Knowledge, Skills And Abilities.
But we also have a "Knowledge, Skills And Abilities" section which we can map to Skills heading.
Thus sections:
About the role (General Description) ->
About the role
...
Responsibilities -> Responsibilities
- ... each item
Requirements -> Requirements
- Education items...
- Experience items...
- License/Certification items...
Skills -> Skills
- Knowledge, Skills And Abilities items...
Benefits -> Benefits
We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including PTO, 401(k), medical and dental plans, and many more.
We should not include Pay or Schedule.
Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract the exact text for each.
General Description: We'll copy the two sentences exactly as given.
"Under the direction of the Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery, the Cardiothoracic Attending Surgeons and the Chief Perfusionist, the Clinical Cardiovascular Perfusionist is responsible for conducting extracorporeal circulation and ensuring the safe management of cardiorespiratory functions during any medical situation where it is necessary to support or replace the patients cardiopulmonary/circulation functions. Responsible for monitoring the necessary physiologic variables during cardiopulmonary bypass; administering blood byproducts; administering anesthetic agents and drugs through extracorporeal circuit, maintaining accurate records; following established protocols in accordance with hospital policy and directives from attending surgeon."
Note there is a typo "patients" missing apostrophe but we keep as is.
Now Responsibilities list items: We need to ensure we keep each bullet as a separate - . We'll copy the sentences exactly as they appear, preserving punctuation.
Let's list them precisely:
1. Prepares patient and equipment for extracorporeal support.
2. Reviews the patient’s medical record, documents and all appropriate medical and laboratory information. This includes but is not limited to diagnosis, planned surgical procedure, current drug therapy, allergies, renal, hepatic, metabolic and coagulation data.

Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning, duplicated lines, application instructions. Also remove "#C Current OU Health Employees - Please click HERE to login." and "OU Health is an equal opportunity employer." Also remove the benefits generic sentence? That's substantive: benefits package. Keep that. We need to format. Let's extract content. General Description paragraph: "Under the direction of the Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery, the Cardiothoracic Attending Surgeons and the Chief Perfusionist, the Clinical Cardiovascular Perfusionist is responsible for conducting extracorporeal circulation and ensuring the safe management of cardiorespiratory functions during any medical situation where it is necessary to support or replace the patients cardiopulmonary/circulation functions. Responsible for monitoring the necessary physiologic variables during cardiopulmonary bypass; administering blood byproducts; administering anesthetic agents and drugs through extracorporeal circuit, maintaining accurate records; following established protocols in accordance with hospital policy and directives from attending surgeon." That's prose. We'll put in

Also "General Responsibilities" note: "The above statements in this job description are intended to depict the general nature and level of work assigned to the employee(s) in this job.
