Abstract
Little has been written about noise levels produced in operating theatres. The noise output of orthopaedic air tools is measured in this survey. At the levels found in this survey it is possible to exceed the safe levels of noise exposure in the workplace as recommended by the Health & Safety Executive although it is difficult to quantify the risk to hearing that this represents.Entities:
