A população em estudo foi composta por 73 trabalhadores de curtume. Para conhecer a história clínica e ocupacional dos trabalhadores, aplicou-se um questionário. Para avaliação da exposição ocupacional, realizaram-se avaliações ambiental e biológica do tolueno e avaliações audiológica e dos níveis de ruído. Os valores obtidos na avaliação ambiental e biológica estavam abaixo dos limi… Show more

“…The ear and neurotoxicity of chemical agents from dust, oils and solvents, for example, toluene, benzene, styrene and others, may cause damage both to the peripheral and central hearing systems, in general being absorbed by the respiratory system and skin, also being able to cause cochlear dysfunction 4,31,32 . The gases and toxic smokes, such as carbon monoxide, carbon disulfide and pesticides with high toxicity levels, have ototoxic effects and induce deleterious changes to hearing, especially when the prolongs exposure of the worker to this risk factor occurs 16,19,28 .…”
