Linking noise to cardiovascular disease pathogenesis.
- Abstract:
- The influence of sound on cardiovascular physiology is well established. Since the time of Orpheus in ancient Greece, whose songs and music could effect behavioural and physical changes, through to modern times, certain types of sounds or music are known to have beneficial effects on cardiovascular physiology. More detailed studies have highlighted the importance of tempo, melodic structure, and periods of silence as crucial factors impacting on heart rate, blood pressure, cerebral blood flow, and barrow reflex function.1 Equally, disruptive noise and/or disturbance from sleep are well recognized stressors that acutely increase heart rate and blood pressure and cause long-term changes in settings of repetitive exposure. Transient arousal from sleep in healthy individuals leads to significant surges in heart rate and blood pressure,2 and loud or disruptive noises or music are strong stimulators of the sympathetic nervous system.
