Definitions for "Hemodynamics"
The study of the forces involved in circulating blood through the body.
study of factors and forces that govern the flow of blood through blood vessels
deals with simultaneously acquired and processed blood flow and blood pressure. Hemodynamic state is represented by blood pressure @ blood flow. The per-beat hemodynamically-significant blood pressure is the Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) and hemodynamically-significant blood flow is Stroke Index (SI). A new hemodynamic state is formed for every heart beat. Only instrumentation processing simultaneously acquired and processed blood flow and blood pressure can be called hemodynamic instrumentation.
