متن کاملThe Effects of Dexamethasone Following an Acute Acoustic Trauma
An acute acoustic trauma (AAT) results when the unprotected ear is exposed to very high sound pressure levels, usually as the result of an industrial or milita~ accident. A study was performed to evaluate the effects of a corticosteroid (dexamethasone) on the hearing loss from a series of blast waves that would simulate an AAT. Groups of chinchillas were exposed individually to ten 160-dB peak ...
متن کاملPrevention of acute acoustic trauma by earmuffs during military training.
BACKGROUND Impulse noise produced from firearms can potentially damage hearing organs resulting in sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). In Chiang Mai during 1997, Detphithak et al reported a prevalence of acute acoustic trauma (AAT) in 22% of new military privates using an H.K.33 for shooting practice without hearing protection. The H.K.33 renders an average sound pressure level of 128 dBA. Earmu...
متن کاملFactors Associated with Vestibular Disorders in Patients with Sensorineural Hearing Loss Due to Acute Acoustic Trauma: A brief report
Background & Aim: Acute acoustic trauma is an important cause of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). Determination of the frequency and contributing factors for vestibular disorders is important, therefore, the current study was performed to assess these factors in patients referred to the ears, nose, and throat (ENT) clinic of one of the hospitals in Tehran, Iran, during the years 2017 to 2019....
متن کاملIncreased sensibility to acute acoustic and blast trauma among patients with acoustic neuroma.
The article shows 2 cases of unusual presentation of acute acoustic trauma and blast injury due to occupational exposure. In the case of both patients the range of impaired frequencies in pure tone audiograms was atypical for this kind of causative factor. Both patients had symmetrical hearing before the accident (which was confirmed by provided results of hearing controls during their employme...
