Noise pollution health effects reduction

Obiettivo

1. Improve the effectiveness and quality of research on noise pollution and its impact on health through European collaboration.
2. Develop Europe-wide consensus on the strength of causal relationships between environmental noise and health effects and seek improvement of methodological standards.
3. Establish unified protocols and initiate field studies across East/West Europe to determine extent of auditory damage from exposure to industrial chemicals with and without noise.
4. Develop a Europe-wide epidemiological evaluation of leisure noise induced tinnitus.
5. Set up an international register of children affected by noisy toys and a network of noise experts.
6. Develop a multi-centre trial to determine the value of otoacustic emissions as an early indicator of noise damage.
7. Develop a European environmental noise health information system for standardised data collection for improved evaluation of dose-response relationships, hearing conservation and education.
Scientific approach
1. Through workshops and working parties strengths of the causal relationships between road and aircraft noise and various health effects such as annoyance, sleep disturbance, interference with speech communication, performance and learning in children, cardiovascular, endocrine and immunological changes will be established.
2. The methodological issues of noise exposure and health effects assessment will be evaluated to improve the quality of research and consequently the basis of environmental health policy decisions.
3. Workgroups will establish protocols to evaluate auditory damage due to ototoxic chemicals alone and in combination with noise from diverse industries in East/West Europe offering different exposure levels.
4. A multi-centre epidemiological study of leisure noise induced tinnitus in young people will be planned and executed by an all European workgroup pooling data for more robust measures of outcome. Noisy toys have led to acoustic trauma in children but there is a lack of sufficient evidence, therefore it is planned to set up an international register of case-studies to provide evidence of the hazards.
5. This project will bring together experts to consider the feasibility of trials of novel pharmacological and other means of protecting against noise trauma and development of new strategies.
6. Early indication of noise-induced hearing loss and identification of individuals at risk would greatly reduce the incidence, therefore a multi-centre trial of otoacustic emissions test will be planned and conducted to determine its value as a predictor of hearing damage
7. All groups will work towards setting unified parameters for a European environmental noise health information system for collection of noise and effects data for improved evaluation of dose-response relationships, dissemination of results, hearing conservation and raising awareness.
