View clinical trials related to Noise; Adverse Effect.
Filter by:Environmental noise represents a health problem for at least one in five citizens of the European Union. Noise exposure leads to the development of arterial hypertension, myocardial infarction, stroke, and obesity. Given the limited information on noise exposure and noise effects on humans in the Republic of Serbia, the overall objective of NOXYCARD is to collect environmental noise levels data; to identify long-term and short-term noise effects on the cardiovascular system; and to evaluate the levels of blood stress hormones, oxidative stress, and inflammation in individuals with normal body weight and individuals with obesity.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about effects of noise in healthy patients undergoing elective surgery.
During Phase I, disguised SoundEar noise devices will be used to record the noise levels in the operating rooms on Labor and Delivery during Cesarean births. Survey data will be acquired from physicians, nurses, and patients to determine if the sound in the operating rooms during surgery impacted the stress levels of those involved. An educational intervention will then be held for the physicians and nurses, and Phase II will involve having the SoundEar devices exposed. When the sound level reaches a distracting level, the light on the device will change to bright red. Surveys will be collected to determine if there is a difference in the stress levels if and when the noise level in the operating room is decreased during cesarean births.
Study noise level in the ICU and its effect on both patients and healthcare personnel. Use music and study same effects on same patients and healthcare personnel.
