Journal Title: Journal of Anesthesia and Surgery - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

Objective: Based on stress theory, this paper proposes a fresh explanation of Radial Artery Spasm (RAS), the nature of which remains unclear.(1) Data Sources: Published research papers accessed via PubMed Study Selection: Abstract review Data Extraction: Computerized Internet Search Data Synthesis: Fresh information relevant to stress theory derived from unrelated research enabled the description of a testable “mammalian stress mechanism” (MSM) that explains the stress theory proposed by Hans Selye. Conclusions: MSM activity explains the nature of RAS.
