Hand-arm vibration syndrome.
The hand-arm vibration syndrome affects workers who perform tasks that generate vibration. Raynaud's phenomenon and sensory impairment of the fingers are the predominant effects. A history of hand-arm vibration (HAV) exposure in a patient with these symptoms should alert the physician to the diagnosis. Referral to a special clinic or hospital department for multiple clinical tests is required t...
متن کاملInfluence of waterproof covering on finger skin temperature and hand pain during immersion test for diagnosing hand-arm vibration syndrome.
The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of waterproof covering on finger skin temperature (FST) and hand pain during immersion test for diagnosing hand-arm vibration syndrome complying with the proposal of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO/ CD14835-1, 2001) for measurement procedure. Six healthy male subjects took part in the immersion tests and immersed the...
متن کاملEffects of room temperature, seasonal condition and food intake on finger skin temperature during cold exposure test for diagnosing hand-arm vibration syndrome.
For diagnosing the hand-arm vibration syndrome, peripheral circulation and sensory tests immersing one hand in cold water at 10 degrees C for 10 min have been performed widely in Japan. The authors investigated the effects of room temperature, seasonal condition and food intake on the test results, especially finger skin temperature. Six healthy males were examined repeatedly under six differen...
متن کاملHand-arm vibration exposure and the development of vibration syndrome.
To evaluate the circulatory disturbances, sensory disturbances and damage to muscles and joints by chain saw vibration exposure, the process of the deterioration of the symptoms with chain saw operating time was studied. Subjects were classified into eight groups according to TOT (Total Operating Time): Group 0, 46 controls; Group A, 39 operators (< 2,000 hours); Group B, 53 operators (2,000-4,...
متن کاملSubjective Responses to Hand-arm Vibration: Implications for Frequency-weighting and Gender Differences
Exposure to vibration transmitted to the hands and arms may increase the risk of developing chronic disorders. Current ISO standards regarding exposure are based in part upon assumptions regarding the relationship between threshold measurements and subjective experiences of vibration at higher intensity levels. This study investigated this relationship by comparing absolute threshold levels at ...
