Exposure to Occupational Noise

2022
يمكن اعتبار ضجيج العوامل الفيزيائية أحد الاضطرابات الرئيسية التي تهدد الصحة المهنية لمشغلي آلات الغابات ذاتية الدفع. قمنا بتقييم ما إذا كانت مستويات الضوضاء المهنية المنبعثة من آلات الغابات ذاتية الدفع المستخدمة في نظام الأشجار الكامل تتوافق مع كل من المعهد الوطني للسلامة والصحة المهنية ومعايير الأيزو 1999:2013، مع اقتراح تدابير التخفيف التي تهدف إلى ...

Occupational noise in printing companies

Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2010
The extent of noise in five printing companies in Novi Sad, Serbia, was determined using TES-1358A Sound Analyzer with RS-232 Interface. The data on equivalent A-level (dBA), as well as, maximum and minimum sound pressure levels were collected. It was found that folders and offset printing units are the predominant noise sources, with the average L (eq)

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

Occupational noise exposure and blood pressure

Journal of Hypertension, 1994
To investigate the relationship between occupational noise exposure and blood pressure.We studied 8811 workers at a metallurgical factory, who were exposed to different levels of noise at the worksite: < or = 80 dB for 8078 workers and > 80 dB for 733 workers. A clinical examination, including measurements of blood pressure (by mercury sphygmomanometer,

Occupational Noise Exposure during Endourologic Procedures

Journal of Endourology, 2008
Long-term noise exposure in the workplace is a known cause of hearing loss. There has been limited study on the potential harm related to shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) or intracorporeal devices on patients and operating room personnel.We used a digital sound meter to measure decibel levels in the operating room during several endourologic procedures ...

Occupational noise exposure and hearing levels

American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1981
A 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.

Statistical evaluation of occupational noise exposure

Applied Acoustics, 2005
Abstract 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.

Managing occupational noise from blasts

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2022
The aim of this work is to examine the current best practice for the assessment of auditory hazards associated with occupational impulsive noise for a UK-based test site. A summary of the literature is presented on the measurement methodologies, hearing conservation, and relevant guidance for the selection of hearing protection within the context of ...

Occupational noise levels in orthopaedic surgery

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1999
Prolonged 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 ...
