Hemodynamics and Cardiac Output - Harding University PDF

Summary

This document is a module on hemodynamics and cardiac output, covering topics such as preload, afterload, and contractility. It includes diagrams of the heart and offers details about measuring cardiac output. The document originates from Harding University and is part of a critical care nursing or medical program focusing on the function of the heart and blood flow.
