Abstract
Objectives: The cold provocation test for diagnosing the vascular component in hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) is likely to be accepted as an objective test, and a few studies have been performed. However, controversy has continued regarding the diagnostic performance of this method. Although objective methods such as plethysmography and laser doppler flowmetry have been studied, they have not received as much attention as other diagnostic methods. Therefore, our study aim was to spread the awareness of HAVS by reporting the results of the cold provocation test in a hand-transmitted vibration exposure group. Methods: The study subjects were 549 workers who had been exposed to hand-transmitted vibrations and reported symptoms in their hands. While the subject immersed both their hands in
목적: 냉각부하 검사는 수완진동 증후군의 혈관계를 객관적으로 검사하는 방법으로 인정받고 있으며 계속적인 연구가 진행 중이다. 본 연구는 일개 병원에서 10년간 냉각부하검사를 시행하여 HAVS 증상 호소자 들의 일반적 특성과 냉각부하 검사 결과를 해석함으로써 진동장애의 혈관계 증상에 대한 진단기준을 제공하고자 한다. 방법: 2001년부터 2010년까지 수년간 수부진동에 노출되고 수부의 불편함을 호소하여 수완진동 증후군에 대한 정밀검사를 시행한 549명의 근로자를 대상으로 하였다. 냉각부하는
