Full Description

​Urgent care clinics are increasingly involved in providing occupational medicine services for corporate clients. Medical surveillance examinations, as required by OSHA, are an important part of these services. One of the more common medical surveillance exams involves workers exposed to hazardous noise levels. These workers require baseline and routine follow up audiograms to detect the potential adverse effects of hazardous noise levels. Many clinicians are not familiar with the adverse effects of hazardous noise exposure. This lecture will describe the pathophysiology of noise-induced hearing loss and demonstrate the practical application of audiogram interpretation consistent with the OSHA regulation.
