Internasionale Geraasbewustheidsdag vind jaarliks op die laaste Woensdag in April plaas met die doel om bewustheid te skep rondom die skadelike uitwerking van geraas op gehoor, gesondheid en lewensgehalte, en om positiewe optrede in jou gemeenskap aan te spoor met die boodskap: \u201cBeskerm jou gehoor; beskerm jou gesondheid.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hoe hard is te hard?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Klank word in desibel (db) gemeet; hoe ho\u00ebr die db hoe meer kan die geraas \u2019n mens se gehoor beskadig. \u2019n Stil kamer word op 40 db geplaas, maar \u2019n geweerskoot of vliegtuig wat opstyg, meet ongeveer 140 dB, wat onmiddellike gehoorskade veroorsaak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geraas is voortdurend om ons, en deur te verstaan wat geraas is en hoe om dit te vermy, kan ons ons gehoor beskerm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Werkplek<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Persone in beroepe soos brandbestryding, polisie- en milit\u00eare dienste, fabriekswerkers, boerdery, konstruksie, nywerhede, en meer, werk almal in \u2019n raserige omgewing. Selfs persone in kantoorgeboue word blootgestel aan fone wat lui, die aanhoudende gedreun van rekenaars, lugversorgers en waaiers. Dit alles veroorsaak irritasie en verhoogde stresgeraas. Geraas in die werkplek hou \u2019n veiligheidsrisiko in deurdat dit konsentrasie verminder en die moontlikheid van beserings aan diens kan verhoog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gimnasiums en sportgeriewe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2019n Studie deur Raymond H. Hull, Ph.D. (1991) het bevind dat 80% van gesondheidsklubs aanhoudend musiek speel wat 105 db oor periodes van een uur oorskry. Daarmee saam was die intensiteit van die instrukteur se stem, met behulp van \u2019n sender, gemiddeld 5 db bo daardie vlak. Die geraas van gimnasiumtoerusting en algemene gesprekvoering kan ook hierby gevoeg word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Musiekkonserte en teaters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Die gemiddelde geraasvlak by musiekkonserte is 120 db met \u2019n risiko van gehoorverlies n\u00e1 net sewe minute. Baie musikante ervaar gehoorverlies n\u00e1 \u2019n leeftyd van konserte en gereelde blootstelling aan uiters harde geraas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winkelsentrums<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Di\u00e9 openbare ruimtes is \u2019n teelaarde vir gehoorverlies. Dit sluit in geraas van mense en inkopietrollies wat oor die te\u00eblvloere beweeg, \u2019n aanhoudende gedreun van stemme en mense wat lag, musiek vanaf die oorhoofse klankstelsel, individuele winkels met hul eie musiek of radio, die klank van breekware en eetgerei in \u2019n oop restaurant, en kelners wat bevele na die kombuis skree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Voertuiggeraas<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Baie mense ry met musiek in die motor, soms op so \u2019n ho\u00eb volume dat dit duidelik deur voetgangers gehoor kan word. Ook in spitsverkeer is die geluid van motorenjins van binne en buite die motor, baie hoog. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dit maak dat ons die musiekvolume verhoog, en al kan ons soms net die musiek bo die geraas van buite hoor, het hierdie elemente gekombineer die potensiaal om skade aan \u2019n mens se gehoor te veroorsaak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Foto: Pexels\/Pressmasters<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Wat kan gedoen word?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beweeg verder weg van luidsprekers indien moontlik.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dra voldoende gehoorbeskerming; \u2019n verskeidenheid daarvan is beskikbaar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wanneer jy oorfone gebruik, speel die musiek op veilige luistervlakke. As jy nie ander mense kan hoor praat wanneer jy die oorfone dra nie of as ander mense vir jou moet skree om op \u2019n meter weg gehoor te word terwyl die oorfone in gebruik is, is dit te hard. Hierdie re\u00ebl is van toepassing op in-die-oor oorfone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beperk die hoeveelheid tyd wat jy in lawaaierige omgewings deurbring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
