Prevention of noise-induced hearing loss in children – evidence-informed recommendations for safe listening at events
Children's events often exceed safe noise levels, underscoring the critical need for sound monitoring and control. We recommend implementing guidelines, public education, and warnings to prevent hearing loss, with proposed regulations and age-related safety recommendations, presenting sound intensity categories with letters A to F.
