Procedures

A medical procedure is a specific action or activity used in the diagnosis and treatment of a health condition. Procedures may include tests or a series of actions needed to make a diagnosis, deliver therapy, or monitor how the patient is responding to treatment. Patients may have several different procedures throughout their diagnosis and treatment. Sometimes they may undergo the same procedure more than once.
