Bovenzi M – The findings of this longitudinal study suggest that a measure of daily vibration exposure calculated from unweighted r.m.s. acceleration over the frequency range 6.3–1,250 Hz performs better for the prediction of vascular disorders in users of vibratory tools than a measure derived from r.m.s. acceleration frequency weighted according to ISO 5349–1. This study provides epidemiological evidence that more weight should be given to intermediate and high–frequency vibration for evaluating the severity of hand–transmitted vibration.
