“…The experimental design exposed the respondents to noise level up to 75 dB for 20 minutes, and saliva samples were collected before and after the noise exposure. The results reported the significant increase in cortisol levels from before to after test performance (p = 0.01) (Wagner et al, 2010), despite the small sample size (n= 20) and noise sensitivity was not determined.…”

“…On account of average motorcycling exposure, motorcycle riders may experience noise levels above 90 dBA, (Chris Jordan, Oliver Hetherington, Alan Woodside, 2004), which is sufficient for activation of HPA axis and release of cortisol for combating the acute stressor (Wagner et al, 2010). For precise investigation of noise-induced cortisol reactivity, young riders noise sensitivity was assessed and recruited from low and high noise-sensitive group for possible comparison in their stress response.…”

Saliva cortisol response was investigated from the motorcycling exposure for approximately 50 minutes between low and high noisesensitive (Weinstein Noise Sensitivity Scale) young riders (19-25 years). The results showed significant difference (p < 0.05) in salivary cortisol concentrations in High-Noise Sensitive group (n = 27). Significant gender differences were found (p < 0.05) among the Low-Noise sensitive group (n = 30), after ride. Cross-analysis between groups was significant (p < 0.05) for before ride cortisol levels of Low-Noise sensitive group. This study suggests that subjective noise sensitivity plays a vital role in increased cortisol level among noise sensitive riders.

“…Although salivary cortisol is one useful index that reflects the activation of the HPA system, there are some other salivary indices that reflect activation of the sympathetic nervous system. Several studies have shown increased chromogranin A (Miyakawa et al, 2006;Takatsuji et al, 2008), and salivary alpha-amylase (Kawada, Fukusaki, Ohtani, & Kobayashi, 2009;Wagner et al, 2010) under psychological stress. It is reported that the response of salivary amylase, which is considered to reflect the activation of the sympathetic nervous system, is faster and larger than that of salivary cortisol (Takai et al, 2004); thus indices like salivary amylase might conceivably be changed by an improvised speech without an audience.…”

Although it has been reported that making a speech without an audience does not cause a significant cortisol response, there is no study that compares no-audience speech to a rest condition. We randomly assigned Japanese female participants (n = 81) to three conditions: (a) making an improvised speech in front of an audience (audience condition); (b) making such a speech without an audience (no-audience condition); (c) merely listening to such a speech (rest condition). The no-audience condition elicited stronger negative psychological responses to the speech than the rest condition, but these response changes were smaller than those of the audience group. Salivary cortisol levels in the audience condition increased, but that of the no-audience condition decreased to levels not significantly different from that of the rest condition. These results showed that making an improvised speech without an audience causes psychological stress to some extent, but the response of cortisol is similar to the rest condition.

“…HPA activity can be apprehended by the non-invasive measurement of salivary cortisol (SC) [11]. SC has been measured in a number of stress models [12] and used in simulation [13]. The underlying learning objective for using simulation-based education is that the repetition of simulations induces an increase in healthcare providers' performance [14][15][16].…”

Objective: Simulated life-threatening medical emergencies generate stress that can be apprehended by measurement of salivary cortisol (SC). The aim of this study was to analyze SC level in multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) members during immersive simulation and to study its evolution over time with repetition of simulation sessions in all team members.Methods: 48 participants constituted 12 Emergency Medical Service MDTs made up of 4 members each. Six MDTs underwent 9 simulations (experimental group) and 6 underwent 3 simulations over one year (control group). SC was assessed the day prior to simulation (T0), before simulation (T1), after simulation (T2) and after debriefing (T3). 1152 samples were analyzed by ELISA. Variation over time was analyzed using ANOVA for repeated measures. Mann-Whitney test was used for comparison between groups at two times and Kruskal-Wallis test was used to study stress response in the different status of teams. A p value <0.05 was considered significant.Results: SC increased from 0.16 ± 0.12 (T0) to 0.26 ± 0.14 (T1). SC level continued to rise up to 0.39 ± 0.27 at T2 before decreasing to 0.21 ± 0.12 at T3, p<0.0001. SC increase was found in all team members with no status effect. SC level was not blunt after repetition of sessions regardless of the frequency of sessions.Conclusion: SC raised during immersive simulation and this variation was not blunt after repetition of simulation sessions. No status effect was found among the MDTs' members. Future study should investigate on other markers of stress response and correlate them to team performance.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov registration number NCT02424890
