Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) is a complex occupational disorder resulting from prolonged exposure to hand‐transmitted vibration (HTV). Clinically, HAVS manifests through vascular, neurological ...

Hand-Arm Vibration (HAV) is an occupational vibration exposure that mainly affects people who regularly use all types of vibrating pneumatic, electric, hydraulic and gasoline-powered hand tools.

The most accurate method to determine the actual vibration magnitude exposure of workers is to perform on-site vibration analysis, which can vary significantly from the values declared by the tool ...
