“…The concept that nonauditory effects of noise contribute substantially to health consequences was suggested in a 1970 monography. 39 The monography described results showing that acute noise exposure had cardiovascular effects, for example, a study establishing that noise exposure led to constricting peripheral blood vessels in individuals engaged in physical exercise. 40 Also, a study showed that exposure to noise or music elicited varying hemodynamic responses, including cardiac output and minute flow, and the authors concluded that the intensity of the sound, rather than its aversive (noise) or pleasurable (music) qualities, governed the somatic responses.…”

Epidemiological studies have found that transportation noise increases the risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with solid evidence for ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and stroke. According to the World Health Organization, at least 1.6 million healthy life years are lost annually from traffic-related noise in Western Europe. Traffic noise at night causes fragmentation and shortening of sleep, elevation of stress hormone levels, and increased oxidative stress in the vasculature and the brain. These factors can promote vascular (endothelial) dysfunction, inflammation, and arterial hypertension, thus elevating cardiovascular risk. The present review focusses on the indirect, nonauditory cardiovascular health effects of noise. We provide an updated overview of epidemiological research on the effects of transportation noise on cardiovascular risk factors and disease, and mechanistic insights based on the latest clinical and experimental studies and propose new risk markers to address noise-induced cardiovascular effects in the general population. We will discuss the potential effects of noise on vascular dysfunction, oxidative stress, and inflammation in humans and animals. We will elaborately explain the underlying pathomechanisms by alterations of gene networks, epigenetic pathways, circadian rhythm, signal transduction along the neuronal-cardiovascular axis, and metabolism. We will describe current and future noise mitigation strategies. Finally, we will conduct an overall evaluation of the status of the current evidence of noise as a significant cardiovascular risk factor.

It was studied in global values and octave band, on the L and A scales, the usual noise of three operating-rooms, in two hospitals in São Paulo. The same study had been done with the noises made by the following equipments, that are normaly used in operating-rooms: eletric Valleylab, Emai, Bovie, Burdick bistouries; Takaoka, Narcofolex, Aga, Oftec respirators; Takaoka, Medap, Card, Oftec aspirators; Dremel, Kaltembach und Voigt drills; eletric Bone Stryker Saw and, FUNBEC cardioscopic. It was confronted, yet, the noise made by aparatus of different trade marks, but, with the same functions, like: respirators, aspirators, eletric bistuories and eletric drills. It was stipulated the average additions of the noises made by five equipments that work simultaneously. The results of the tests proved that the noise, in the studied operating-rooms, is inferior of the maximum level preconized for hospitals. The obtained results, permit to conclude that the noise made by the studied apparatus is not sufficient to cause deafness in the components of the surgical team or in the patient, but it is sufficient to cause physiological and psychological alterations in those ones.
