Morphology

hemodynamically = hemodynamic (semi-transparent) = hemo + dynamic + al + ly

The adverbial form is a standard derivation from the adjective 'hemodynamic'.

Etymology

Hemodynamically comes from the parts hemo- meaning 'blood' and dynamic meaning 'movement' or 'energy'. So when doctors monitor someone hemodynamically, they are checking how the blood moves and flows in the body.
