Noise-induced hearing loss in construction workers being assessed for hand-arm vibration syndrome.
BACKGROUND Construction workers are at risk of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) but often have no periodic audiometric testing. METHODS The participants were construction workers assessed for Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) at the Occupational Health Clinic, St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto, Ontario. Audiometry was offered and 169 of the 191 workers assessed for HAVS agreed to have the aud...
متن کاملSensory neural hearing loss following Tympanomastoid surgery
Objective: Generated acoustic trauma by suction and drill may cause sensorineural hearing loss after Tympanomastoid surgery. This study was carried out to determine the relationship of sensorineural hearing loss and chronic otitis media surgery at Ahvaz Jundishapur University of Medical Sciences in Iran. Material and Methods: This prospective study included 386 patients of ch...
متن کاملThe Relation between Hearing Loss and Smoking among Workers Exposed to Noise, Using Linear Mixed Models
Introduction: Noise is one of the most common and harmful physical factors in the working environment and has physical and psychological effects on individuals. In this study, the audiometry results of industrial workers were modeled and the effect of noise and other factors on hearing loss was examined. Materials and Methods: ...
متن کاملLeupeptin reduces impulse noise induced hearing loss
BACKGROUND Exposure to continuous and impulse noise can induce a hearing loss. Leupeptin is an inhibitor of the calpains, a family of calcium-activated proteases which promote cell death. The objective of this study is to assess whether Leupeptin could reduce the hearing loss resulting from rifle impulse noise. METHODS A polyethelene tube was implanted into middle ear cavities of eight fat sa...
