BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: High blood pressure (BP) after stroke is associated with a poor outcome. However, exercise training or speech therapy for patients with stroke can raise the BP. The aim of this study was to examine cardiovascular responses during the moving beans task (MBT) used in occupational therapy and to study the influence of psychological characteristics on cardiovascular responses during this task in healthy subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In 34 healthy volunteers, the BP and the heart rate (HR) were continuously measured during the baseline period, the 5-minute MBT, and the 1-minute cold pressor test (CPT). All subjects completed self-reported questionnaires, including the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D), the State Trait Anxiety Inventory Y-2, and the Japanese version of the 20-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). RESULTS: The systolic blood pressure (SBP), the diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and the mean blood pressure (MBP) significantly increased during the MBT and the CPT compared with the baseline values. SBP, DBP, and MBP responses during the MBT significantly correlated with the TAS-20 scores. Moreover, DBP response during the MBT correlated with the CES-D scores. CONCLUSIONS: The MBT significantly raised BP without increasing the HR. BP responses during this task were influenced by the psychological characteristics of depression and alexithymia.
