Why the study?
Does the duration of noise exposure affect the course of recovery from Temporary Threshold Shift in normal listeners?
Does the duration of noise exposure affect the course of recovery from Temporary Threshold Shift in normal listeners?
The course of recovery from temporary threshold shift is uniquely determined by the residual shift at 2 minutes post-exposure, regardless of the exposure duration.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
TTS recovery at 3-4 kHz may be predicted from 2-min residual shift alone; hypothesis-generating and should not yet alter clinical monitoring.
Ward et al. (1959) studied this question.
