About this document

Physiological Correlates of Applied Tension May Contribute To Reduced Fainting During Medical Procedures by Nieves is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document examines the physiological effects of applied tension (AT), a behavioral technique used to reduce fainting, in blood donors. It finds that donors who practiced AT had more stable heart rate, blood pressure, and vagal activity compared to donors who did not, suggesting AT inhibits the physiological effects that promote fainting.
