Preventing noise exposure in farmworkers
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study tests whether a program can help farmworkers protect their hearing from loud noise on the job. If you work in agriculture and are around noisy equipment, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You work as a farmworker and are regularly around loud noise at work
- You can understand and give permission in Spanish or English
- You do not have an ear infection or recent ear surgery that would make using foam earplugs unsafe
