Hearing Loss - From Multidisciplinary Teamwork to Public Health, 2021 Noise exposure is a basic concept used to assess the risk of noise induced hearing loss in the workplace. It is very important, since loud noise is omnipresent in almost all human activity, especially in industry, construction, mining and transportation.

Criteria for Noise Exposure [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1965 This presentation is intended to supply information primarily to the individual who has recently become involved with the many problems of “what are acceptable noise levels” and who has not necessarily been involved in the day-to-day business of noise control.

Noise Exposure Questionnaire: A Tool for Quantifying Annual Noise Exposure [PDF]
Journal of the American Academy of Audiology, 2017 Background:Exposure to both occupational and nonoccupational noise is recognized as a risk factor for noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL). Although audiologists routinely inquire regarding history of noise exposure, there are limited tools available for quantifying this history or for identifying those individuals who are at highest risk for NIHL ...

Noise exposure and public health.
Environmental Health Perspectives, 2000 Exposure to noise constitutes a health risk. There is sufficient scientific evidence that noise exposure can induce hearing impairment, hypertension and ischemic heart disease, annoyance, sleep disturbance, and decreased school performance. For other effects such as changes in the immune system and birth defects, the evidence is limited.

Relationship between occupational noise exposure and renal function impairment in oil workers
环境与职业医学, 2022 BackgroundThe current oil production determines oil workers’ occupational noise exposure. Without effective protection, noise will affect various aspects of worker’s body functions, including acting on the adrenal cortex system and resulting in renal ...
