Vibrotactile sense and hand symptoms in blue collar workers in a manufacturing industry / Bo T. Flodmark, Göran Lundborg

Sumario: To study whether vibrotactile sense combined with questionnaires and a clinical examination could serve as a screening procedure, in the health care service, for sensorineural symptoms.

Another group of workers not exposed to vibration but subjected to heavy manual work served as the control group
