hemodynamic measurement

Hemodynamic measurement involves assessing how blood flows through your body and how your heart functions. It includes checking blood pressure, heart rate, and the strength of your heart's contractions. These measurements help doctors understand how well your circulatory system is working, identify conditions like heart failure or blood pressure issues, and guide treatment decisions. Techniques can involve devices like sensors, catheters, or non-invasive tools to gather data on blood pressure, blood flow, and the pressure inside your heart and arteries. Overall, it provides vital information about your cardiovascular health and how effectively your heart and blood vessels are functioning.
