HOVV EMOTIONS AFFECT BLOOD PRESSURE

What. many of us lack in these days of uncertainty is serenity of mind and control of the emotions. This is a natural thing to happen because we have nerves. a fellow feeling for others. and R conscience. I have in mind the effect of the emotions cn blood pressure in child- ren and young adults.

In Pediatrics. Drs. G. W. Clayton and J. G. Hughes state that. blood pressure is known to be affected by coughing. straining, eating, emo- tion and other factors. These phy- sicians record the changes occur- ring in blood pressure in children made in the admitting room to the ward of 21 hospital. The 92 pat- ients studied were admitted for surgical operations that. were not emergencies and also for mild in- fections. Their ages ranged from 2 to 12 years.

In 36 cases. the first or initial blood pressure determinations were made in the admitting room and at regular intervals thereafter while the children were in the hospital wards.

On each patient the following

factors were evaluated or meas- ured: (ll diagnosis and degree of illness; t2) environment. admit- ting room or ward; (3! presence of parents: procedures (41 crying or not; (5) pulse rate; (6) time of day. ' What did the study of these children show from above stand- points and how did the children ad- just themselves to their new sur- roundings?

The most common result was for the blood pressure to be higher in the admitting room and then to become progressively lower on the ward.

The second most. common finding was for the pressure to rise on the ward in the first hours after admission and then to become pro- greasively lower. The factors which influenced blood pressure t.he most were emotional tension due to ad- mission to ii strange surrounding of a hospital, and the thought. of sep- aration from parents. Blood pres- sure differences of 30 to 40 mm of mercury were noted between the rise at first entering hospital and after getting used to hospital life.

Other factors affecting blood pressure were physical activity. painful hospital procedures, and. after such operations: visits of parents: awakening states; and anger. However. these variations in blood prusure were not as great. as their first or admitting pressures.

Blood pressures did not rise and fail to the same extent when the child was actually ill.

The above shows the great in- fluence the emotions have on blood pressure and the safety to be ac- quired from developing serenity of mind.

The new chairman of the ini- portant national textile standards committee of the Canadian As- sociation of Consumers is Mrs. Michael I-lumphries, director of Research Laboratory of York Knit.- tlng Mills. Her appointinent. Slic- cccding Mrs. Warren Current tformerly Miss Jessie Roberts who is at present dean of the House- hold Science Department at. the University of Toronto; was con- firmed at. the national annual meeting of C.A.C. in Toronto last. September.

Canadian women are fortunate in having Mrs. phries directing C.A.C. textile standards work, for her Job at York Mills involves conducting regular control testing of fast- ness to laundering, perspiration. light. rubbing, etc.. of the com- pany's own undei-wear and hosi!ry products. Her work and that. of her assistants provides standard testing solutions; handles all com- plaints about the quality or per- formance of the company's pro- ducts. does extensive development. work to create new lines or im- prove old. and does considerable matching of shades for their dyers Her department also tries to pro- vide the answers to mysterious difficulties in production; such as holes suddenly appearing, spots that won't. come off. and so on.

Members of C.A.C. can take ad- vantage of this wonderful service by Just sending in questions or compiaints to their local executive who will be glad to pass them on to Mrs. I-lumphrles and her com- mittee for investigation. Phone or write to Helen A. Lawson, Pro- vincial President.
