Table 2.

Physiologic response to stress.

Measure Overall (N = 161) MS-provoked ischemia
Yes (N = 64) No (N = 97)
BL MS BL MS BL MS
SBP *133.6 ± 18.4 159.5 ± 21.0 *136.1 ± 21.0 160.1 ± 23.6 *130.6 ± 16.4 159.1 ± 19.6
DBP *75.2 ± 10.1 88.4 ± 10.8 *76.8 ± 10.7 87.5 ± 11.3 *74.3 ± 9.7 88.9 ± 10.5
HR *59.1 ± 11.0 68.6 ± 11.9 *61.3 ± 13.3 70.6 ± 13.6 *57.8 ± 9.3 67.4 ± 10.7
Epinephrine (pg/mL) 28.7 ± 38.3 46.7 ± 64.7 35.0 ± 50.6 61.1 ± 88.7 24.6 ± 26.8 37.3 ± 40.4
Norepinephrine (pg/mL) 365.5 ± 259.2 389.9 ± 236.7 402.6 ± 263.2 437.4 ± 275.0 341.0 ± 254.9 358.2 ± 202.7

Values are mean ± standard deviation. Changes from BL to MS in both SBP and DBP and HR were all significant at the *p < 0.0001 level, however, the differences in BL or MS values between those with (YES) versus without (NO) MS-provoked ischemia were not statistically significant. There were no significant differences in epinephrine and norepinephrine across conditions or between groups.
