Background: Exposure to acute noise can cause an increase in biological stress reactions, which provides biological plausibility for a potential association between sustained noise exposure and stress-related health effects. However, the certainty in the evidence for an association between exposures to noise on short- and long-term biomarkers of stress has not been widely explored. The objective of this review was to evaluate the strength of evidence between noise exposure and changes in the biological parameters known to contribute to the development of stress-related adverse cardiovascular responses. Materials and Methods: This systematic review comprises English language comparative studies available in PubMed, Cochrane Central, EMBASE, and CINAHL databases from January 1, 1980 to December 29, 2021. Where possible, random-effects meta-analyses were used to examine the effect of noise exposure from various sources on stress-related cardiovascular biomarkers. The risk of bias of individual studies was assessed using the risk of bias of nonrandomized studies of exposures instrument. The certainty of the body of evidence for each outcome was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation approach. Results: The search identified 133 primary studies reporting on blood pressure, hypertension, heart rate, cardiac arrhythmia, vascular resistance, and cardiac output. Meta-analyses of blood pressure, hypertension, and heart rate suggested there may be signals of increased risk in response to a higher noise threshold or incrementally higher levels of noise. Across all outcomes, the certainty of the evidence was very low due to concerns with the risk of bias, inconsistency across exposure sources, populations, and studies and imprecision in the estimates of effects. Conclusions: This review identifies that exposure to higher levels of noise may increase the risk of some short- and long-term cardiovascular events; however, the certainty of the evidence was very low. This likely represents the inability to compare across the totality of the evidence for each outcome, underscoring the value of continued research in this area. Findings from this review may be used to inform policies of noise reduction or mitigation interventions.

“…In particular, numerous accounts of problematic noise levels and/or stressful auditory surroundings at hospitals have been published, expounding the harmful consequences to patient well-being during hospitalisation [47,[53][54][55][56][57]. These include, among others, poor sleep [58], increased blood pressure [59], impaired wound healing [60], and general discomfort and annoyance [55,61]. It is thus of great interest to pursue creating satisfactory auditory environments for meal-based activities in hospitals that ensure favourable bases for nutritional care and patient wellbeing.…”

Eating-related challenges and discomforts arising from moderately acquired brain injuries (ABI)—including physiological and cognitive difficulties—can interfere with patients’ eating experience and impede the recovery process. At the same time, external environmental factors have been proven to be influential in our mealtime experience. This experimental pilot study investigates whether redesigning the sonic environment in hospital dining areas can positively influence ABI patients’ (n = 17) nutritional state and mealtime experience. Using a three-phase between-subjects interventional design, we investigate the effects of installing sound proofing materials and playing music during the lunch meals at a specialised ABI hospital unit. Comprising both quantitative and qualitative research approaches and data acquisition methods, this project provides multidisciplinary and holistic insights into the importance of attending to sound in hospital surroundings. Our results demonstrate that improved acoustics and music playback during lunch meals might improve the mealtime atmosphere, the patient well-being, and social interaction, which potentially supports patient food intake and nutritional state. The results are discussed in terms of potential future implications for the healthcare sector.

“…13 Veljovic et al stated that it is possible to predict body blood pressure for a period when exposed to a certain level of noise. 14 Despite the focus on exposure limits for noise to prevent hearing loss, there is restricted information about noise exposure limits to prevent non-auditory effects. Epidemiological studies have also not presented an accurate pattern between occupational noise exposure and non-auditory responses.…”

Evidence of the non-auditory effects of noise exposure on workers is growing. This study aimed to empirically present prediction models of psychophysiological responses of workers with respect to noise exposure. In this study, 169 male workers from typical industrial workrooms were asked to judge the mental workload, noise annoyance, and noise sensitivity during exposure to noise. Two main physiological responses that include heart rate and blood pressure were also measured. Noise exposure characteristics were measured using the calibrated instruments. Empirical prediction models were developed based on Random forest compared with the regression method. 46% of the workers were exposed to noise up to the exposure limit (85 dB for 8 h) and 54% of the workers were exposed to noise upper than it. It is observed that the considerable body response changes of workers exposed to noise from the medium to high levels ( p < 0.05). Random forest could provide more accurate predictions than multiple regressions (R square = 0.73 to 0.80). Four variables as noise dose, noise sensitivity, age, and noise frequency are found to be the important factors influencing the psychological responses, respectively. Moreover, the main variables as noise sensitivity and noise dose and age are found to be the important factors influencing the physiological responses, respectively. Changes in the psychophysiological responses above the medium noise levels confirmed that the action level (82 dB for 8 h) can be a suitable criterion to prevent possible auditory and non-auditory complications. These dose-response models can be helpful in setting definitive exposure limits for noise-induced non-auditory effects at workplaces.
