Effect of “energy drink” consumption on hemodynamic and electrocardiographic parameters in healthy young adults
Abstract
Background Energy drinks are frequently purported to improve cognitive function and concentration. However, the cardiovascular effects of these drinks have not been adequately studied. Objective To determine the cardiac effects of a commercially available, multicomponent energy drink in healthy volunteers. Methods Fifteen healthy adults were included in this prospective study. Individuals who had chronic medical conditions, were on chronic medication, or were pregnant or breast-feeding were excluded. Subjects abstained from caffeine for 48 hours prior to and during the study. In the morning on Day 1 of the study, while subjects were in a fasted state, baseline blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), and electrocardiographic (ECG) parameters were measured. Participants then consumed 500 mL (2 cans) of an energy drink and measurements were repeated 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, and 4 hours later. Participants then drank 500 mL of energy drink daily for the next 5 days. Day 1 protocol was repeated on Day 7. Results On Days 1 and 7, maximum mean systolic BP (SBP), HR, and QTc interval occurred at 4 hours. Maximum diastolic BP (DBP) occurred at 2 hours on Days 1 and 7. Within 4 hours of energy drink consumption, on Days 1 and 7, respectively, SBP increased by 7.9% (p = 0.006) and 9.6% (p Conclusions Although no significant ECG changes were observed, HR increased 5-7 beats/min and SBP increased 10 mm Hg after energy drink consumption.

High consumption of these supplements may lead to an increase in blood pressure by 10 mmHg and an increase in heart rate by 5-7 beats per minute, even in healthy people.
“Moreover, high consumption of these supplements may lead to both an increase in blood pressure by 10 mmHg and an increase in heart rate by 5–7 beats per minute, even in healthy people [43].”

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.
