# .NET runtime wait handle events
# .NET runtime wait-handle events

These runtime events capture information about wait handles. They can be useful to investigate thread pool starvation issues. For more information about how to use these events for diagnostic purposes, see [logging and tracing .NET applications](../../core/diagnostics/logging-tracing.md)
