The adrenal glands are responsible for the production of the catecholamines hormones, as a response to stress. They alert the person experiencing stress by increasing the blood flow to the brain, heart and the kidneys, preparing the person for an instant fight-or-flight reaction. The catecholamines thus increase breathing, heartbeats, alertness, blood pressure and muscle strength and lower the blood flow to the skin. These hormones are broken down by the body and are eliminated through urine. Therefore, a 24-hour urinary catecholamine test is used to measure the levels of these hormones in a urine sample.
