这项小规模研究的目的是测量、分析和比较一个有九个床位的综合重症监护病房（ICU）的噪声水平。测量是使用Norsonic 116声级计进行的，以国际公认的“A”加权标度记录噪音水平。在连续3天的5分钟内获得并记录噪声水平数据。噪声水平分析结果表明，该临床区域的平均噪声水平为56.42 dB（A），急性尖峰达80 dB（A）。在整个24小时期间，在零星的间隔期间达到的最安静的噪音水平为50 dB（A）。使用方差分析的参数检验发现了正相关关系（p
The aim of this small-scale study was to measure, analyse and compare levels of acoustic noise, in a nine-bedded general intensive care unit (ICU). Measurements were undertaken using the Norsonic 116 sound level meter recording noise levels in the internationally agreed 'A' weighted scale. Noise level data were obtained and recorded at 5 min over 3 consecutive days. Results of noise level analysis indicated that mean noise levels within this clinical area was 56.42 dB(A), with acute spikes reaching 80 dB(A). The quietest noise level attained was that of 50 dB(A) during sporadic intervals throughout the 24-h period. Parametric testing using analysis of variance found a positive relationship (p
