Abstract

Hearing loss is a term used to describe hearing loss in one or both ears. Normally the human ear can hear a 20 - 20000 Hz frequency with an intensity below 80 dB. If a person continually hears a sound above the normal threshold, it will damage the function of hair cells resulting in hearing loss. Hearing loss is a problem most commonly encountered in workers who work in environments with high levels of noise. The diagnosis can be confirmed with audiometry test.
