Medical Procedures

A medical procedure refers to a series of actions undertaken to attain a desired outcome in the treatment of individuals with health issues.

A medical test, also known as a diagnostic procedure, is performed with the aim of assessing, quantifying, or diagnosing a patient's condition or parameter. Other prevalent types of procedures include therapeutic procedures, which aim to treat, cure, or restore function or structure, encompassing a wide array of surgical interventions. Rehabilitation procedures fall within this category as well.
