Hand-Arm vibration assessment among tiller operator
Introduction: The power tiller is a multipurpose hand tractor designed primarily for rotary tilling and other farm operations. Vibration, transmitted from the handles of the tiller to the operators’ body, causes many injuries such as, pain ...

Correlation between Vibration Induced White Finger and Hearing Loss in Miners
Correlation between Vibration Induced White Finger and Hearing Loss in Miners: Szanto Cs., et al. Institute of Public Health Cluj‐Napoca, Romania—In the present investigation age and duration of exposure to vibration and noise were matched with the intention to confirm the earlier reported difference in hearing threshold loss in miners with vibration ...

Pathological changes observed in the finger biopsy of patients with vibration-induced white finger.
Lesion biopsies of 60 fingers from 30 patients with vibration-induced white finger (VWF) and control observations from seven fingers of five referents demonstrated three main characteristic pathological changes. First, in each case, the muscular layers of the arteries revealed intense thickening with strong hypertrophy of individual muscle cells ...

Cold provocation tests in the evaluation of vibration-induced white finger.
Two types of cold provocation tests, a classical test with immersion of the hand in cold water and the evaluation of finger systolic blood pressure (FSBP) during local cooling, were administered to forest workers. Raynaud's phenomenon in the classical test correlated positively with the number of disabled phalanges, recovery time, and frequency of ...

Hyperreacivity of the Central Sympathetic Nervous System in Vibration-Induced White Finger
Vibration exposed workers with and without vibration-induced white finger (VWF), subjects with primary Raynaud's phenomenon and non-exposed controls were investigated in the present studies. The applied stimuli comprised cold stimuli, vibration exposure, and postural stimuli.

Vibration-induced white finger disease: a case report.
A syndrome of pain, stiffness and numbness associated with vascular changes that develops in the hands of those who use vibrating tools has been termed vibration-induced white finger disease. The authors describe such a case that occurred in a 22-year-old man.
