Vibration-induced white fingers and manipulative dexterity.
Banister, P. A., and Smith, F. V. (1972). Brit. J. industr. Med., 29, 264-267. Vibration-induced white fingers and manipulative dexterity. Previous work has shown that Raynaud's phenomenon or vibration-induced white fingers are associated with consistent use of vibrating tools. The present study indicates that significant losses in manipulative skill are also associated with the use of power-dr...
متن کاملReduction of manipulative dexterities and activity of daily living in the patients with vibration induced white finger in Japanese forestry.
The authors carried out more than 20 yr of follow up studies of vibration-induced white finger (VWF) from the time of cessation for the use of chainsaws. These results were presented at the 8th International Conference of Hand-Arm Vibration. It is not uncommon for vibration exposed workers to report difficulty in hand gripping, either due to reduced dexterity or reduced grip strength . With res...
متن کاملInhibition in Patients with Vibration White Fingers LARS ERIK LINDELAD AND LENA EKENVALL
In healthy subjects the physiological vasoconstriction to local cooling has been linked to sympathetic adrenoceptors of the alpha2-subtype. The present study was designed to determine if the vasoconstriction in response to local cooling in patients suffering from vibration white fingers can be diminished by alpha2-adrenoceptor inhibition. Six men with vibration white fingers, verified in a cold...
متن کاملRaynaud's phenomenon, vibration induced white finger, and difficulties in hearing.
BACKGROUND An association has previously been reported between finger blanching and hearing difficulties, but only in workers with exposure to noise and hand transmitted vibration (HTV). AIMS To explore the association in a community sample, including cases who lacked occupational exposure to noise or HTV. METHOD A questionnaire was mailed to 12 606 subjects aged 35-64 years, chosen at rand...
متن کاملVibration-induced white finger and auditory susceptibility to noise exposure.
It is well known that there are wide individual variations in the susceptibility of human hearing to noise exposure. The hearing of male forest workers were examined with vibration-induced white finger (VWF) as an indicator of noise susceptibility of hearing. The results were as follows: 1. Hearing losses at 4 and 8 kHz in subjects with VWF were greater than those of unaffected men in a matched...
