Effect of an initial noise induced hearing loss on subsequent noise induced hearing loss
Hearing Research, 2004The effect of previous noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) on subsequent NIHL was studied in rats. Three groups of animals were initially exposed to different durations of 113 dB SPL broad band noise (21 days, 3 days or 0 days--unexposed). Their permanent threshold shifts (PTS) from this exposure (PTS1) were evaluated using auditory nerve-brainstem ...

Presbycusis and Noise-Induced Hearing Loss*
Ear and Hearing, 1990In a longitudinal and an age cohort comparing study the influence of aging and occupational noise exposure on hearing sensitivity was studied. The participants of the longitudinal study were studied at 70, 75, and 79 years of age. Seventy year old men exposed to occupational noise had 10 to 15 dB poorer hearing in the high frequency range than ...

Noise-induced hearing loss is a major hazard in many workplaces and in society. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health estimates that more than 30 million workers (almost 1 in 10) are exposed to unsafe noise levels on the job. Helicopter emergency medical services crews work in an environment in which exposure to aviation noise makes

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.

Tinnitus in noise-induced hearing loss
British Journal of Audiology, 1985Tinnitus was analysed in 94 patients with noise-induced hearing loss. Tinnitus of a pure tone character was most common followed by narrow-band noises, and a combination of these. A broad-band noise type of tinnitus was the least common finding. Tinnitus was most common at high frequencies.

Recruitment in Noise-Induced Hearing Loss
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1966A group of subjects with sensory-neural noise-induced hearing loss was tested with a fixed-frequency Bekesy type audiometer. Responses were studied for signs of abnormal auditory adaptation and increased differential sensitivity. Adaptation was defined as a poorer threshold response to a continuous tone than to an interrupted tone.

Noise‐induced hearing loss in children
The Laryngoscope, 1992AbstractOccupational noise exposure remains the most commonly identified cause of noise‐induced hearing loss (NIHL), but potentially hazardous noise can be encountered during leisure‐time activities. NIHL in the pediatric population has received scant attention.

Abstract The achievements of IFOS NIHL Standing Committee have been reported. It would be desirable to standardize the criteria for the evaluation of NIHL. The WHO and IFOS should consider updating the guideline. The present situation of the conservation of hearing at the noise-producing workshops and compensation for noise-induced hearing loss ...

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)

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.
