Influence of Anxiety and Claustrophobia on Blood Pressure and Heart Rate during MRI Scan

Aim: To assess the effect of anxiety and claustrophobia on human blood pressure and heart rate during MRI scan. Method: Samples of 48 patients who need MRI scan service were chose. A questionnaire and scales were used to evaluate the patients’ anxiety group and claustrophobia. Blood pressure and heart rate were determined in before and after the scan in the same circumstances and method. Results: The majority of the patients were female. The relation between anxiety scale and gender revealed that majority of the female have the high anxiety scales (68.57%). Alternatively, the minority of male have high anxiety level (40%). The relation between anxiety and claustrophobia with the systolic pressure before and after MRI scan, approved a statically significant difference with t-test = 3.007 and P value <0.05. No significant association was found of diastolic pressure and heart rate at the same time and circumstances with anxiety levels and claustrophobia. Conclusion: This study represents significant evidence for an association of high blood pressure with high anxious and claustrophobic patients, measured before and after the MRI scan. While diastolic blood pressure and heart rate did not change during MRI exam.
