Abstract
Currently the role of stress as a potential factor in cardiovascular disease is receiving considerable attention. Accordingly, it is important to know how it is defined and identified, how it affects the cardiovascular system and how it can be managed with the knowledge presently available. An overview of the present body of knowledge on the relationship between stress and cardiovascular disease is presented for the reader's consideration.
