Abstract

Objective: Noise must be reduced and taken under control because negativelyaffects the health of health personnel and preterm newborns in particular. The American Academyof Pediatrics reported that noise levels must be kept below 45 dB. However, many studiesdemonstrated that the desired level could not be reached. This research was conducted with theaim of evaluating the level of noise in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and the effect of giveneducation on controlling the noise.Materials and Methods: This research was conducted with doctors (4), nurses (18), and personnel(4) who worked in the 3rd level NICU of a university hospital. This research had a pre-test, post-testquasi-experimental design in a single group. Ethics board and institutional approval were grantedfrom the hospital. A noise information form that was prepared by researchers, educational programon noise control, noise observation form, and noise measuring equipment were used in the study.Noise was measured for 24 hours over 7 days in repeated measurements in the unit beforeeducation, after education, and 6 weeks after the education program.Results: The noise levels were significantly lower 6 weeks after the education program comparedwith before the program (p

Özet

Amaç: Gürültü özellikle preterm yenidoğanların ve sağlık çalışanlarının sağlığını olumsuz yönde etkilediği için azaltılması ve kontrol altına alınması gereken bir durumdur. Amerikan Pediatri Akademisi gürültü seviyesinin saatlik 45 dB’nin altında olması gerektiğini bildirmiştir. Ancak yapılan birçok çalışmalarda, istenilen düzeye ulaşılamadığı görülmektedir. Araştırma, yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesindeki gürültü düzeyini ve gürültü kontrolü için verilen eğitimin etkisini değerlendirmek amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma, bir hastanenin yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitesi 3. düzeyinde çalışan doktor, hemşire ve personel üzerinde yapıldı. Tek grupta ön test-son test yarı-deneysel bir tasarım olarak yapıldı. Hastaneden etik kurul ve kurum izni alındı. Çalışmada araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan gürültü bilgi formu, gürültü kontrolü eğitim programı, gürültü gözlem formu ve ses ölçüm cihazı kullanıldı. Ünitede eğitim öncesi, eğitim sonrası ve eğitimden altı hafta sonra yapılan tekrarlayan ölçümde 7 gün ve 24 saat boyunca gürültü ölçümleri yapıldı. Bulgular: Gürültü seviyesinin, eğitim öncesine kıyasla eğitimden altı hafta sonrasında anlamlı derecede düşük olduğu bulundu (p
