1. Basic Principles
Stress Reactivity
We are interested in seeing how each childs physiology changes as a result of each of the study tasks
We are also interested in how quickly each childs physiology recovers from each of the study tasks
Baseline
TASK
Recovery
Blood Pressure
Impedance cardiography
Electrocardiograph
Heart Rate and Heart Rate Variability (RSA)
Impedance Cardiography
A measure of cardiac efficiency Stroke volume = the volume of blood leaving the heart on each beat (~ 80-120 mL) Cardiac output = Stroke volume * heart rate Pre-ejection period: pure sympathetic nervous system response With blood pressure, can calculate total peripheral resistance (MAP / CO) * 80
Recovery: Quick
Recovery: Sluggish
Blood Pressure
Measures pressure with that circulating exerts on the arteries Systolic blood pressure (high)
Pressure when heart is contracting
3. HPA Axis
Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis
Collecting Saliva
The child should drool into a saliva tube using the straws provided The tube must be filled to the line, with no bubbles You can pop the bubbles using the straw or by tapping the tube onto a table
Appraisals: Resources exceed Demands ANS reactivity: ventricle contractility Cardiac output Vasodilation (TPR)
Hormonal: cortisol DHEA Testosterone Recovery: Quick
