• Description:
  Our investigations cover longitudinal and cross-sectional observations on the health state of woodcutters working with motor-chain saws in order to determine the influence of chronic exposure to vibration and noise on the prevalence of pathological changes in these workers. These investigations are designed to give comprehensive information which will support or correct previous concepts on vibration disease and occupational hearing loss.
