Occupational Exposure to Noise Pollution in Anesthesiology
Brazilian 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
