Abstract:
The authors compare the results obtained from the strain gauge plethysmography on 79 patients affected by vibrating machines angiopathology with a group of 20 others non exposed to vibrations. The results, analyzed according to the microcirculation vision, lead the authors to suppose that the damage caused by vibrating instruments is revealed at the capillary bed trophic exchange level.
