在日本，对患者的上肢进行各种功能测试，作为诊断手臂振动综合征的系统方法的一部分。虽然观察不限于手和手臂，但包括全身，但综合征的评价基本上是基于雷诺现象的严重程度和功能测试的结果。通过功能测试，包括用10摄氏度水进行的冷激发测试，研究了具有振动诱导的白色手指的工人与参考工人之间的辨别效率。结果表明，功能检查对手臂振动综合征有诊断意义。研究了老化、试验室的大气温度、温度的季节性变化和再现性的影响，以澄清一些要点。设备和技术已基本标准化。然而，为了比较和分析在不同研究机构进行的功能测试的结果，需要进一步研究测试和评估方法的标准化。
Various function tests are performed on the upper extremities of patients in Japan as part of a systematic method for diagnosing the hand-arm vibration syndrome. Although the observations are not confined to the hands and arms, but include the whole body, the evaluation of the syndrome is essentially based on the severity of Raynaud's phenomenon and the findings of the function tests. With the function tests, including a cold provocation test with 10 degrees C water, the efficiency of discrimination between workers with vibration-induced white finger and reference workers was investigated. The results indicated that the function tests were of diagnostic significance for the hand-arm vibration syndrome. The influences of ageing, atmospheric temperature in the test room, seasonal variation in temperature, and reproducibility were investigated to clarify some points. The equipment and techniques have been basically standardized. However, for comparing and analyzing the results of the function tests performed in different research institutes, further investigation of the standardization of the test and evaluation methods is necessary.
