Abstract

Nurse researchers are increasingly interested in the biological effects of chronic stress. Using minimally invasive methods to collect biological indicators may improve research access to vulnerable populations. This review maps the indicators being measured through minimally invasive methods to investigate a variety of biological changes in response to chronic stress.

Minimally-invasive methods of examining biological changes in response to chronic stress: A scoping review

Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Nurse researchers are increasingly interested in the biological effects of chronic stress. Using minimally invasive methods to collect biological indicators may improve research access to vulnerable populations. This review maps the indicators being measured through minimally invasive methods to investigate a variety of biological changes in response to chronic stress.
