  • Title: [Erythrocyte deformability in subjects with microangiopathy caused by vibrating tools].
    Author: Pennarola R, De Martino F, Rosanio V, Mazzarella S.
    Journal: Ric Clin Lab; 1983; 13 Suppl 3():487-91. PubMed ID: 6673032.
    Abstract:
    A research on hemorheological and microvascular behavior with regard to the red blood cell filterability determined by the Teitel-Reid-Dormandy technique has been performed on 15 subjects with microangiopathy due to vibrating tools, who were hospitalized at the Work Medicine Institute of the 2nd Medical Faculty of Naples University. The results pointed out an increase of filtration times and a consequent decrease of blood flow, as opposed to the control group. As a conclusion of the research, the authors were in the opinion that in the vibrating tool syndrome, in addition to the hemodynamic elements, the hemorheological components of the microcirculation should also be primarily evaluated alongside red blood cell filterability.
