Safety
Watch 3-minute video preview: https://www.hrmvideo.com/catalog/listen-smart-safely-handling-the-power-of-sound
Copy and paste the notes below and add details that you found interesting…
- Goal: listen to music in a way that it will enrich but not harm you
- 10%-20% of high schoolers have hearing damage
- Hearing damage can happen in one occasion, doesn’t have to be constant
- No cure!
- Temporary Threshold Shift: “hearing hangover”
- Wearing earplugs doesn’t change the quality of sound but just the volume
- High-frequency loss is most commons with musicians
- Distancing yourself from the source and earplugs are the best way to prevent hearing loss
- Stimulants while listening to music can increase the risk of hearing damage
- Resting your ears is important, space out concerts
- 70 dB, no risk
- 85 dB, risk after 8 hours
- 91dB, 2 hours without damage
- 100 dB, 15 minutes without damage
- 115 dB, 1 minute without damage
- 140 dB, immediate damage and pain
- Symptoms of damage, tinnitus, muffled hearing, and other mental and physical problems like irritability, depression, high blood pressure, and fatigue
- damage is done when the cochlea hair cells in the inner ear are damaged, they do not grow back. These are what interpret vibrations and turn them into what we hear
