Occupational noise and demographic factors in hearing
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1991The effects of age, sex, socioeconomic background and noise exposure on hearing were examined in a population sample. Subjects, aged between 17 and 80 years, were selected from the electoral register using a stratified random sampling technique based on age and reported hearing difficulty.

Statistical evaluation of occupational noise exposure
Applied Acoustics, 2005Abstract Assessment of the risk involved in occupational noise exposure ( L EP,d ) is significantly affected by assumptions and uncertainties in setting true exposure conditions meaning that the calculation according to the European legislation might not be fully representative.

No-occupational exposure to noise.
Giornale italiano di medicina del lavoro ed ergonomia, 2005The aim of the research was to evaluate the risk for the health of the disco-goers related to no-professional exposition to noise produced by speakers of discos. The noise has been measured in the middle of a disco using a class 1 phonometer. The exposition level was calculated using the formula quoted in the D.Lgs 277/91 (Italian legislative decree ...

Occupational noise exposure and hearing levels
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1981A study was made at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center to measure the hearing levels of persons working in a noisy environment. Two different workplaces, central air-conditioning plant and glass flowing shops, where a number of persons were exposed to noise levels exceeding 85 dB(A) were chosen.

Occupational noise levels in orthopaedic surgery
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1999Prolonged exposure to potentially damaging noise levels in the workplace has been the subject of much recent litigation. The occupational risk of noise induced hearing loss among orthopaedic surgeons is unknown. Continuous readings of air-powered instruments routinely used in orthopaedic surgery were made in a regional trauma unit at standard distance ...

Noise and Occupational Medicine
Journal of Occupational & Environmental Medicine, 2019: Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) represents the second most common occupational disease in the United States. Although the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has promulgated an occupational noise exposure standard and associated recordkeeping requirements, OSHA inspections increasingly document practices that violate both the noise

The Combined Effects of Occupational Exposure to Noise and Other Risk Factors − A Systematic Review
Noise and Health, 2019Purpose: Noise-induced health effects exacerbate by many other risk factors. This systematic review aims at shedding light on the combined effects of co-exposure to occupational noise and other factors. Material and Methods: A literature search in Web of

The Interactive Effect of Occupational Noise on Attention and Short-Term Memory: A Pilot Study
Noise and Health, 2018Introduction: Human performance is influenced by several job-related factors and workplace conditions, including occupational noise. This influence can occur at sound pressure levels lower than the ones that cause physiological damage, such as hearing ...
