Identifying and Prioritizing Diseases Important for Detection in Adult Hearing Health Care.

abstract：:The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) specifies maximum permissible ambient noise levels (MPANLs) allowed in an audiometric test room to ensure that hearing thresholds obtained down to 0-dB HL will not be elevated due to masking by ambient noise. MPANLs were originally specified in 1960 and have been revise...
