[State of central and regional hemodynamics in riveters depending on the type of blood circulation]

Tetrapolar rheovasography was used to medically examine 54 riveters, of equal age and duration of work, who were exposed to the complex action of low-intensity vibration and noise. The central, cerebral and peripheral hemodynamic indices were assessed depending on the blood circulation type with dew account of the current views on the hemodynamic norms. Identified were differences in the absolute figures of most indices of central and cerebral hemodynamics depending on the blood circulation type. The 'levelling' of the peripheral blood circulation indices was performed by initial vibration disease pathologic developments in vascular tension. It can be concluded that the hypokinetic type of blood circulation is a risk factor which should be taken into account in selecting the occupational criteria for riveters.
