title: [Test of provoked arterial hypertension. Value and limitations of the static exercise of prolonged handgrip].
abstract: The used of a test of prolonged grip and recording the changes in arterial blood-pressure and heart rate is suggested as a way of studing the blood-pressure changes of effort in hypertensives. This test provides a real screen for provoqued hypertension: it allows --to define a normal profile of reference for blood-pressure, --to check the fluctuations at rest of blood-pressure, --to determine the severity of haemodynamic dissorders, --to judge the efficiency of hypotensive therapy.
