Özet

Objective: Noise must be reduced and taken under control because negatively affects the health of health personnel and preterm newborns in particular. The American Academy of Pediatrics reported that noise levels must be kept below 45 dB. However, many studies demonstrated that the desired level could not be reached. This research was conducted with the aim of evaluating the level of noise in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), and the effect of given education on controlling the noise.
