Acute exposure to hand-arm transmitted vibrations (HAVs) may decrease the Wall Shear Stress (WSS) exerted by the blood flow on the arterial endothelium. In the case of chronic exposure to HAVs, these WSS changes can lead to arterial growth and remodeling…

Vibration dose assessed by current standards is likely to be poorly suited to protecting workers against vibration white finger (VWF). Therefore, we intended for a two-step approach to better tackle vibration-induced pathophysiological vascular…

The health effects of vibrations transmitted to the hand-arm system are elicited by a chronic exposure along the worker s lifetime. It is challenging to ascertain the precise nature of these phenomena without undertaking epidemiological…
