15 صفحه اولAutonomic nervous activity during hand immersion in cold water in patients with vibration-induced white finger.
Autonomic nervous function in response to cold was investigated in 21 patients with vibration-induced white finger (VWF) and 17 healthy controls of similar age, using power spectral analysis of heart rate variability. In a supine position, electrocardiogram and skin temperature of both index fingers were measured during immersion of right hand in cold water at 10 degrees C for 10 minutes. Auton...
متن کاملEffect of room temperature on tests for diagnosing vibration-induced white finger: finger rewarming times and finger systolic blood pressures
PURPOSE This study investigates the effects of room temperature on two standard tests used to assist the diagnosis of vibration-induced white finger (VWF): finger rewarming times and finger systolic blood pressures. METHODS Twelve healthy males and twelve healthy females participated in four sessions to obtain either finger skin temperatures (FSTs) during cooling and rewarming of the hand or ...
متن کاملSympathetic and local vasoconstrictor response to cold in vibration induced white finger.
To study the relative roles of sympathetic and local vasoconstrictor response to cold in vibration induced white finger (VWF) seven lumberjacks with bilateral VWF and seven age matched controls were investigated. During body cooling finger systolic blood pressure was measured with a cuff technique simultaneously on one affected finger on each hand at 30 degrees, 15 degrees, and 6 degrees C. Bot...
متن کاملAssessment of vibration induced white finger: reliability and validity of two tests.
The reliability and validity of two tests (cold water and reactive hyperaemia) designed to confirm a patient's history of vibration induced white finger were studied. The cold water test is a measure of digital rewarming after hand immersion in cold water. Reactive hyperaemia consists of measuring digital rewarming after cold water immersion plus temporary ischaemia imposed on the hand. For ten...
