Editing Perfusionist (section)

=== Australia and New Zealand ===
In some states of [[Australia]] and [[New Zealand]], a perfusionist must have at least a science degree (usually in health sciences) as an entry requirement before training. Further didactic training is in a practical format at a hospital whilst doing a three-year course via correspondence and e-learning, with the Australian and New Zealand College of Perfusionists (ANZCP). The final examination for a clinical perfusionist is administered by the ANZCP over two days. This involves three hours of written assessment, two hours of multiple choice questions, and four half-hour ''[[Oral exam|viva voce]]''. Perfusion training is determined by the hospital at which the perfusionist is employed and may involve a hospital accredited training program which is determined by the health department to be the equivalent of ANZCP certification program.

In Australia perfusion can also be provided by a medically trained [[physician]] who has undertaken additional subspecialty training.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://mdhs-study.unimelb.edu.au/short-courses/mms-short-courses/medical-perfusion/overview|title=Overview - Overview — MDHS Study|website=mdhs-study.unimelb.edu.au|access-date=2019-08-12}}</ref>
