Changes in Coronary Blood Flow and Other Hemodynamic Indicators Induced by Stressful Interviews

C. A. ADSETT M.D.1, W. W. SCHOTTSTAEDT M.D.1, and S. G. WOLF M.D.1

1 University of Oklahoma School of Medicine, Department of Medicine, Department of Preventive Medicine and Public Health, and the Veterans Administration Hospital, Oklahoma City, Okla.

Thirty male subjects, aged 29-69, were studied before and during stressful interviews. Coronary blood flow was measured using the radioactive Diodrast technique developed by Sevelius and Johnson. Blood pressure and pulse rate were also measured; cardiac output and peripheral resistance were calculated. Significant alterations in these parameters occurred in a patterned way which corresponded to judgments of the patients' feeling states.
