Abstract

This chapter presents the effects of noise on human health. A number of studies on the adverse health effects, such as annoyance, sleep disturbance, cardiovascular diseases, tinnitus, cognitive impairment, etc., have linked the exposure to noise levels. These health effects are the most investigated non-auditory health endpoints of noise exposure. Sleep disturbance, cardiovascular diseases, and annoyance mostly related to road traffic noise comprise the main burden of disease from environmental noise. The chapter reviews the various health effects associated with environmental noise and the empirical formulations proposed in recent years for correlating annoyance and sleep disturbances with noise exposure. Also, the concept of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs ) and case study for estimation of DALYs are presented.
