Abstract

Autonomic nervous system dysfunction may be implicated in the association of hypertension with panic attacks and panic disorder. We hypothesised that panic symptoms of autonomic origin are more common in attacks experienced by hypertensive than normotensive patients, that autonomic panic symptoms cluster together as a distinct factor, and that this factor is more prevalent in hypertensive patients with panic than in normotensives.
