  • Preventing Hearing Loss Caused by Chemical (Ototoxicity) and Noise Exposure
    Preventing Hearing Loss Caused by Chemical (Ototoxicity) and Noise Exposure Safety and Health Information Bulletin SHIB 03-08-2018 DHHS (NIOSH) Publication No. 2018-124 Introduction Millions of workers are exposed to noise in the workplace every day and when uncontrolled, noise exposure may cause permanent hearing loss. Research demonstrates exposure to certain chemicals, called ototoxicants, may cause hearing loss or balance problems, regardless of noise exposure. Substances including certain pesticides, solvents, and pharmaceuticals that contain ototoxicants can negatively affect how the ear functions, causing hearing loss, and/or affect balance. Source/Copyright: OSHA The risk of hearing loss is increased when workers are exposed to these chemicals while working around elevated noise levels. This combination often results in hearing loss that can be temporary or permanent, depending on the level of noise, the dose of the chemical, and the duration of the exposure. This hearing impairment affects many occupations and industries, from machinists to firefighters. Effects on Hearing Harmful exposure to ototoxicants may occur through inhalation, ingestion, or skin absorption. Health effects caused by ototoxic chemicals vary based on exposure frequency, intensity, duration, workplace exposure to other hazards, and individual factors such as age. Effects may be temporary or permanent, can affect hearing sensitivity and result in a standard threshold shift. Since chemicals can affect central portions of the auditory system (e.g., nerves or nuclei in the central nervous system, the pathways to the brain or in the brain itself), not only do sounds need to be louder to be detected, but also they lose clarity. Specifically, speech discrimination dysfunction, the ability to hear voices separately from background noise, may occur and involve: .

  • Concomitant Use of Nsaids Or Ssris with Noacs Requires Monitoring for Bleeding
    Original Article Yonsei Med J 2020 Sep;61(9):741-749 https://doi.org/10.3349/ymj.2020.61.9.741 pISSN: 0513-5796 · eISSN: 1976-2437 Concomitant Use of NSAIDs or SSRIs with NOACs Requires Monitoring for Bleeding Min-Taek Lee1, Kwang-Yeol Park2, Myo-Song Kim1, Seung-Hun You1, Ye-Jin Kang1, and Sun-Young Jung1 1College of Pharmacy, Chung-Ang University, Seoul; 2Department of Neurology, Chung-Ang University Hospital, Chung-Ang University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea. Purpose: Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are widely used in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) because of their effectiveness in preventing stroke and their better safety, compared with warfarin. However, there are concerns for an in- creased risk of bleeding associated with concomitant use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or selective sero- tonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) with NOACs. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the risk of bleeding events in individuals taking concomitant NSAIDs or SSRIs with NOACs after being diagnosed with AF. Materials and Methods: A nested case-control analysis to assess the safety of NSAIDs and SSRIs among NOAC users with AF was performed using data from Korean National Health Insurance Service from January 2012 to December 2017. Among patients who were newly prescribed NOACs, 1233 cases hospitalized for bleeding events were selected, and 24660 controls were determined. Results: The risk of bleeding events was higher in patients receiving concomitant NSAIDs [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.41; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.24–1.61] or SSRIs (aOR 1.92; 95% CI 1.52–2.42) with NOACs, compared to no use of either drug, respec- tively.
