dc.description.abstract | The noise in the neonatal intensive care units (NICU) is recognized by many researchers as an agent with negative implications on health and well-being of premature infants (Nicolau et al, 2005) and health professionals. Some sources of noise in hospitals include equipment, alarms, pneumatic tube systems, elevator buzzers, printers, ice machines, food carts, paging systems, call bells, telephones, televisions, and staff/visitors conversations. Several studies showed that “team conversation” was perceived by professionals as one of the main noise sources in NICU. Environmental modifications can effectively decrease noise levels, however the process of caring for hospitalized patients needs frequent and ongoing interpersonal dialogues. Minimizing the patient exposure to interpersonal communications between healthcare staff requires a behavior change. A well structured training program (TP) seems to be a low-cost measure to begin a noise reduction process in a hospital environment (Tsunemi, Kakehashi & Pinheiro, 2012). | pt_PT |
