Epidemiological evidence for new frequency weightings of hand-transmitted vibration.
This paper provides an overview of the exposure-response relationship for the vascular component of the hand-arm vibration syndrome, called vibration-induced white finger (VWF). Over the past two decades, several epidemiological studies have shown a poor agreement between the risk for VWF observed in various occupational groups and that predicted by models included in annexes to International S...
متن کاملFrequency weightings for hand-transmitted vibration: results of the Ottawa workshop.
In this collection of papers we have read about a range of research being applied to understanding the relationship between exposures to hand-transmitted vibration and injury to the hand and arm. These include laboratory studies designed to investigate specific human physiological and psychophysical responses or to determine biodynamic models for the hand and arm; animal surrogate studies to in...
متن کاملRelative Performance of Frequency Weighting W(h) and Candidates for Alternative Frequency Weightings for Predicting the Occurrence of Hand-transmitted Vibration-induced Injuries.
Exposure to hand-transmitted vibration is usually assessed according to International Standard ISO 5349-1:2001 using the frequency weighting W(h). This paper compares eight frequency weightings that might be used to supplement or replace W(h). The comparison is based on a data from two databases, one containing over 7200 measured hand-arm vibration (HAV) spectra from a wide range of industrial ...
متن کاملHand-arm vibration syndrome and dose-response relation for vibration induced white finger among quarry drillers and stonecarvers
Objectives-To investigate the occurrence of disorders associated with the hand arm vibration syndrome in a large population of stone workers in Italy. The dose-response relation for vibration induced white finger (VWF) was also studied. Methods-The study population consisted of 570 quarry drillers and stonecarvers exposed to vibration and 258 control stone workers who performed only manual acti...
متن کاملDose-response patterns for vibration-induced white finger.
AIMS To investigate alternative relations between cumulative exposures to hand-transmitted vibration (taking account of vibration magnitude, lifetime exposure duration, and frequency of vibration) and the development of white finger (Raynaud's phenomenon). METHODS Three previous studies have been combined to provide a group of 1557 users of powered vibratory tools in seven occupational subgro...
