Overview
Historical perspective
- In 1713, Ramazzini found deafness in copper smiths who hammered copper for his living.[1]
- 1886 the primary epidemiological survey of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) was conducted by Thomas Barr.
- In 1890 Habermann described the histology of NIHL within the organ of Corti.
- In 1928 Fowler observed the standard dip at 4 kHz.
- In 1939 Bunch published the primary audiometric feature of NIHL demonstrating the standard high-frequency SNHL.
- Hearing loss was undertreated till the 20th century. In the early 1980s, audiologists became increasingly aware of the potential adverse effects of even mild degrees of hearing loss on the psychosocial and psychoeducational outcomes of people.[2][3]
- In the past 40 years serious efforts to reduce excessive noise at work sites have been initiated. In the last half of the 20th century, multiple governments imposed strict orders to limit workers' exposure to loud sounds.[4]
