An overview of the role of cardiovascular reactivity to stressful challenges in the etiology of hypertension

Potempa, Kathleen·1994·The Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing

Abstract

There is significant variability among individuals in the cardiovascular responses to both physical and psychologic stimuli, a phenomenon called cardiovascular reactivity. The magnitude of cardiovascular reactivity may distinguish those prone to develop cardiovascular disease or differentiate pathophysiologic states among individuals who have existing pathologies such as hypertension. This article describes the cardiovascular reactivity hypothesis as a proposed mechanism of hypertension development. Furthermore, proposed mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of hyperreactivity are also discussed. The value of assessing stress-induced cardiovascular reactivity is evaluated with special regard to hypertension, and future avenues for nursing research are presented.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
