摘要

新生儿病房的声音水平继续超过建议。早产儿所经历的高音量暴露可能导致较差的神经发育结果。方法一项包含10个问题的调查评估了新生儿临床医生对单间新生儿病房的声强和暴露的看法和认识；以及声音级别的建议。结果122名临床医生中有73名（60%）回应了调查。受访者将12个设备项目或活动评为中等至极大声的范围内，尽管81% （n = 59）强烈或中等同意单间降低声音水平。不到50%的人强烈同意大声的声音会破坏生长和发育。只有41% （n = 30）和27% （n = 20）分别知道建议的平均和峰值声级。结论临床医生能够主观评价声强，但大多数缺乏对声级建议的认识。声音水平和暴露程度很高，新生儿基本设备产生的过度声音的主要来源。

Sound exposure in a purpose built, single room configured neonatal unit - A survey of clinical neonatal staff

Introduction

Sound levels in neonatal units continue to exceed recommendations. Elevated sound exposures experienced by preterm infants may contribute to poorer neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Method

A 10-question survey assessed neonatal clinicians’ opinions and awareness of sound intensity and exposures in a single room configured neonatal unit; and sound level recommendations.

Results

Seventy-three of 122 (60%) clinicians responded to the survey. Respondents rated 12 equipment items or activities within the range of moderately to extremely loud, although 81% (n = 59) either strongly or moderately agreed single rooms reduced sound levels. Less than 50% strongly agreed that loud sounds disrupt growth and development. Only 41% (n = 30) and 27% (n = 20) were aware of recommended average and peak sound levels respectively.

Conclusion

Clinicians were able to subjectively rate sound intensity, however most lacked awareness of sound level recommendations. Sound levels and exposures were high with the prominent sources of excessive sound arising from essential neonatal equipment.
