Stress response

Whole body response to physiological or psychological trauma.


The predictable physiological response that occurs in humans as a result of injury, surgery, shock, ischemia, or sepsis.


Stress Response, once known as the General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS), is the body’s adaptation (reaction) to stress. Regardless of the cause, the reaction to stress is psychological and physiological.
