Title: Power hand tool vibration effects on grip exertions / by Robert G. Radwin, Thomas J. Armstrong and Don B. ChaffinAuthor: Radwin, Robert G.
Notes: Sumario: Operation of vibrating power hand tools can result in excessive grip force, which may increase the risk of cumulative trauma disorders in the upper extremities. Muscles responses were greatest at frequencies where grip force was affected, indicating that the tonic vibration reflex was the likely cause of increased grip exertionsRelated records: En: Ergonomics. - London [etc.]. - Vol. 30, nº 5, May 1987 ; p. 833-855Materia / lugar / evento: Ergonomía Extremidades superiores Vibraciones Máquinas y herramientas Electromiografía Lesiones musculares Síndrome del Trauma Acumulativo Síndrome del Túnel Carpiano Otros autores: Armstrong, Thomas J.
