Abstract
— Resting and pre‐infusion heart rates recorded in 66 panic disorder patients revealed no significant differences between panickers and nonpanickers. There was also no significant difference in pre‐fusion heart rates between either lactate or isoproterenol panickers and placebo nonpanickers. There was neither a sensitizing nor a desensitizing effect of laboratory‐induced panic attacks on subsequent pre‐infusion heart rates.Keywords
