The epidemiology of noise exposure in the Australian workforce
Noise and Health, 2013 This work considers an alternate methodology for the estimation of the noise exposed population of the Australian workforce. Previous methods relied on the statistics from the annual rate of application for worker′s hearing loss compensation claims, the ...

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.

Noise exposure in the rural setting [PDF]
The Laryngoscope, 1993 AbstractNoise levels of 155 tractors on 36 farms were studied. The range of noise levels at the driver's ear level with radios off and windows closed (if so equipped) was from 78 to 103 dB. Seventy‐five percent of tractors without cabs had noise levels in excess of 90 dB, compared to only 18% of tractors with cabs. The use of a radio adds an average of

Workplace noise exposure and the prevalence and 10-year incidence of age-related hearing loss.
PLoS ONE, 2021 There is paucity of population-based data on occupational noise exposure and risk of age-related hearing loss. Therefore, we assessed cross-sectional and longitudinal associations of past workplace noise exposure with hearing loss in older adults.

NOISE EXPOSURE DURING ORTHOPAEDICS SURGERY [PDF]
Science Heritage Journal, 2017 There is serious concern on noise hazard in operating theatre especially in the orthopaedics field that requires usage of many instruments. However, data on this noise exposure particularly in Malaysia is rather limited.

Indian Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2008 Noise of machines in various agro-based industries was found to be the major occupational hazard for the workers of industries. The predominant noise sources need to be identified and the causes of high noise need to be studied to undertake the appropriate measures to reduce the noise level in one of the major agro-based industries, oil mills.To ...
