Sažetak

With the increase of occupational damages of hearing it has proved desirable to find a test indicative of the susceptibility of workers to the damaging effect of industrial noise. In 1940. Payser introduced a test which did not prove reliable. Wilson, Kilm and Theilgaard tried to modify Payser's test, but without satisfactory results. The authors have developed their original test in which instead of pure tones and white noise they use standardized industrial noise at the level of 100-116 decibels during 5 minutes, and assess the results obtained in relation to the results of Carhart's threshold tone decay test. Experience has shown that this test is not fully indicative either. The authors point out that further studies of the pathophysiology of the damaging effect of industrial noise are to be carried out, before a reliable test of the susceptibility to industrial noise can be developed.
