Age and noise-induced hearing loss
Scandinavian Audiology, 2001The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of noise, age and confounders in noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Information about work exposure, the use of hearing protective devices, audiogram, environmental and biological factors was collected from 406 paper mill workers exposed to noise levels of 91-94 dB(A), 124 forest workers exposed to ...

Preventing noise-induced hearing loss
Nursing Clinics of North America, 2002Noise-induced hearing loss is a significant, irreversible impairment, but one that is preventable. The numbers of persons, including children, exposed to high noise is increasing, necessitating the use of hearing protection if the noise cannot be reduced to a safe level.

Noise-induced hearing loss in Asia
International Journal of Audiology, 2011The aim of this manuscript is to summarize the current scenarios encompassing noise exposure in the workplace and the risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in Asia. NIHL is the most prevalent and preventable occupational disease in most Asian countries.

Pediatrics, 2002
To the Editor — Niskar et al’s 1 estimate of 5.2 million US children with noise-induced threshold shifts (NITS) was unexpectedly high for a condition known primarily as an occupational hazard. It was particularly surprising that 1 out of 12 of the youngest children, aged 6–11, already had NITS. Some other study findings were also remarkable.

Prevention of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
Preventive Medicine, 1994Sounds of sufficient loudness and duration will damage the human ear resulting in temporary or permanent hearing loss, often accompanied by tinnitus. Irreversible inner ear damage from repeated sound overstimulation can occur at any age, including early infancy, resulting in permanent noise-induced hearing loss.

Noise-Induced Hearing Loss and Presbyacusis
International Journal of Audiology, 1971The effect of aging on hearing (threshold) levels at 1 000 and 4 000 Hz was investigated in war veterans who had normal hearing for their age at 1 000 Hz and considerable hearing losses at 4 000 Hz (produced by acoustic trauma or other war-time noise exposure) when first tested audiometrically. It was found that the threshold levels at both 1 000 and 4

The AMA and Noise-induced Hearing Loss
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1969AN editorial appearing inThe Journal( 205 :928 [Sept 23]) entitled "Noise Pollution" should stir the ire of anyone remotely interested in the protection and preservation of the organ of Corti. This editorial is written in a facetious manner, obviously criticizing a national noise study by the Public Health Service's National Center for Urban and ...

Hearing acuity and susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss
British Journal of Audiology, 1987Above a critical level (CL) of fatiguing tone, temporary threshold shift (TTS) rises rapidly with intensity. Using a fatiguing tone of 1000 Hz, threshold shift following 1 min stimulation at varying intensities was measured at the same frequency in 55 normal subjects and the CL determined for each.

To the Editor:— Your editorial on "Noise-Induced Hearing Loss" ( 195 :1054, 1966) brought up the thought that conditions which take many years to produce could be very difficult to verify experimentally. I find that anyone in a vocation entailing noise usually has a hearing loss after working a number of years in it. Farmers (tractors without mufflers)
