Hearing impairment due to cigarette smoking and simultaneous exposure to occupational noise
Abstract Background : Noise is the most common hazard in the workplace and noise induced hearing loss considered to be the most common occupational disease as well. Cigarette smoking, in some studies, has been known to induce hearing loss.

متن کاملOccupational exposure to noise pollution in anesthesiology.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES 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 of occupational ...
متن کاملA job-exposure matrix for occupational noise: development and validation.
OBJECTIVE To develop a job-exposure matrix (JEM) for occupational noise in Sweden and to estimate its validity. METHODS The JEM, developed by a group of experienced occupational hygienists, contains 321 job families with information regarding occupational noise from 1970 to 2004. The occupational noise information derives from measurements collected from different sources. The time period lab...
متن کاملOccupational noise exposure and risk of acoustic neuroma.
A small number of prior epidemiologic studies of occupational noise exposure based on self-report have suggested an association with acoustic neuroma. The goal of the present study was to further examine the association between noise exposure and acoustic neuroma by using an objective measure of exposure in the form of a job exposure matrix. A total of 793 acoustic neuroma cases aged 21-84 year...
متن کاملComparison of perceived and quantitative measures of occupational noise exposure.
OBJECTIVES Characterization of highly variable noise exposures over long periods of time presents a major challenge. Common exposure assessment strategies such as assignment of exposure levels based on job title information may not provide adequate exposure contrast or precision for variable exposures. Subjective exposure data may offer an alternative or complementary exposure assessment strate...
