Emissões otoacústicas como instrumento de vigilância epidemiológica na saúde do trabalhador

Abstract: Introdução: O ruído é um agente nocivo à audição sendo frequente nos ambientes urbanos e laborativos. Dentre as estruturas do sistema auditivo, as células ciliadas externas são as primeiras a serem lesadas e as emissões otoacústicas identificam mínimas alterações cocleares. Objetivo: Analisar alterações cocleares com as otoemissões acústicas evocadas transientes em indivíduos expostos ao risco combinado: ruído e produtos químicos. Método: Participaram da pesquisa 49 trabalhadores de uma empresa de cimento, com… Show more
