title: [Vibration-induced Raynaud phenomenon caused by an electric hedge trimmer].
abstract: Authors observed Raynaud's phenomenon verified by cold-provocation test and measuring finger systolic blood pressure on a man working with bush cutter equipment installed on a tractor. Vibration measurements showed acceleration superior to maximal allowable level. Other causes of a secondary Raynaud's phenomenon were excluded by means of detailed internal examination. On the ground of the exposure data and lack of other ethiological factors the authors think that the patient had vibration-induced Raynaud's phenomenon. For prevention they proposed the diminishing of the daily exposure time and periodical medical examinations. They want to draw the attention for this sort of exposure.
