| Description | The noise pollution is in meantime very important theme. The noise is very important factor, because of its raising threshold. The impact on human's health by noise is a hidden long-time process. We get into contact with sound and noise every day at home, at work and also in nature. The noise factor is important in comparison with other health factors because it is acting in every time, also in time we sleep and spend for relax. The noise pollution is raising and as its consequence the human's health is getting damaged, but not only on hearing mechanism. Many studies, publications, experiments, measurements and research has been performed on noise pollution, however the citizens are not very well informed about the noise impact on their health. We tolerate higher noise thresholds very often, but we are not very conscious about the consequences. That is why we need to explore the noise impact on human's health and find solution how to protect one of our most important apparatus - the hearing mechanism. This paper is focused on the research of dangerous impact of noise and consequences on human's health. |
