Occupational Exposure to Noise Pollution in Anesthesiology

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012
The harmful effects of workplace noise pollution are well known and described in the literature. The effects of prolonged exposure to noise in areas demanding high level of concentration, such as operating rooms, depend on the variability of individual responses and intensity of different generation sources. The aim of this paper is to present a review

New trends in the prevention of occupational noise-induced hearing loss.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health, 2020
Noise exposure during lifespan is one of the main causes of hearing loss. The highest risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is related to exposures in the workplace, and affects about 7% of the population.

Fault Detection via Occupation Kernel Principal Component Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The reliable operation of automatic systems is heavily dependent on the ability to detect faults in the underlying dynamical system. While traditional model-based methods have been widely used for fault detection, data-driven approaches have garnered increasing attention due to their ease of deployment and minimal need for expert knowledge.

Occupational exposure to noise in relation to pregnancy-related hypertensive disorders and diabetes

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Work, Environment and Health, 2020
Objectives: Exposure to environmental noise has been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, but evidence for occupational noise is limited and conflicting, especially related to pregnancy outcomes.

Noise Induced Work Places and Noise Related Occupational Risks [PDF]

open access: yesOccupational Medicine & Health Affairs, 2018
Noise is broadly defined as unwanted sound that generally prevents people from performing at maximum ability and efficiency. Following air and water pollution, noise pollution is the third most critical environmental subject. Noise can be industrial noise, military noise, traffic noise, other kinds of environmental sourced noises, etc.

Occupational noise exposure: A review of its effects, epidemiology, and impact with recommendations for reducing its burden.

open access: yesJournal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2019
Exposure to hazardous noise is one of the most common occupational risks, both in the U.S. and worldwide. Repeated overexposure to noise at or above 85 dBA can cause permanent hearing loss, tinnitus, and difficulty understanding speech in noise.
