Just 15 minutes of continued use of a power driver demonstrates the effect of poor blood flow around the hand. For anyone not familiar with the affects of continued exposure to vibration hazards, long-term injuries could be:
| Vibration White Finger (VWF) | |
| Bone, tissue and joint damage | |
| Nerve damage
