The cold pressor test is a test measuring the tendency to develop essential hypertension. One hand is placed in ice water. An excessive rise in the blood pressure or an unusual delay in the return of normal blood pressure when the hand is removed from the water is believed to indicate that the individual is at risk for hypertension.  3, record 1, English, - cold%20pressor%20test

Prueba empleada para investigar en un paciente su tendencia a la hipertensión arterial. Se determina en uno de los brazos la tensión arterial del individuo en reposo; luego se le hace sumergir la mano y antebrazo del otro miembro en agua fría a 4°C durante un minuto y se determina nuevamente la presión arterial en el primer brazo a los 30 y a los 60 segundos. Una elevación de 15 a 20 mm de Hg indica una hiperreacción y es índice de que el sujeto tiene una predisposición a padecer hipertensión arterial.  2, record 1, Spanish, - prueba%20de%20Hines%2DBrown

To assess the sensitivity of isocapnic hyperventilation with cold air in detecting airway hyperreactivity in asthmatic children, we studied 13 asthmatic patients ... and 10 normal children. Cold air challenge consisted of 4 minutes of moderate hyperventilation plus another 4 minutes of maximal hyperventilation, both with subfreezing air (-16 degrees to -18 degrees C) ... We conclude that exercise and cold air-induced bronchospasm have different physiologic mechanisms, and that cold air testing can be used as a routine challenge to identify airway hyperreactivity in children.  1, record 2, English, - isocapnic%20hyperventilation%20with%20cold%20air
