Measuring this rise and fall of cortisol levels at waking can be used as a “mini stress test”. Research shows that the size of this increase correlates with HPA-axis function, even if the sample measurements are all within range. A quick saturation of saliva swabs upon waking, and at 30 and 60 minutes after waking, provide what is required to assess a patient’s Cortisol Awakening Response. The results include: • Analysis of cortisol awakening response (CAR) from cortisone (5) and cortisol (5) • Graphical representation of results • Provider notes with specific additional information created specifically for the patient
