Summary
Summary
This article demonstrates the clinical utility of implementation of cardiovascular physiology in a routine bedside echocardiographic examination for better understanding of clinical status of a patient and optimalization of treatment strategy. Relying on the fundamental physiological laws and interactions, the authors of the article try to show usefulness of application of some standard and sophisticated echocardiographic techniques to noninvasive estimation and monitoring of heart hemodynamics in the clinical milieu.
